Village pub set on the main road, frequented by drinkers and diners. The large open-plan bar is set for diners but there is always seating available for drinkers, with ales mainly from the West Country. A beautiful garden is at the rear of the pub. There is a skittle alley and a traditional fire in the winter.

A choice of Cask Ales from local microbrewery Black Bear Brewery is always available.
