A warm welcome is assured in this traditional village pub, a roaring log fire awaits in the main bar, and there is also a snug, and a games room with pool, skittles and darts regularly played. Two real ales from Bays usually available, one is their "charity" beer of the month, and other local brews appear. Good home cooked food usually available, often locally sourced.
Lobby has an old looking 'counter' and glazed screen above. Stable door into the public bar on the right with 'Bar' wording on the upper section. This large room is work of the 1970s with stucco stipple plastered walls, some mock tudor panels, modern bar and modern 'period' stonework and part of a Delabole slate floor. The snug beyond it has a bar counter and fixed seating which could be modern with a large opened out area to the modern skittle alley. Oak lounge on the left with the figure '1' on the door has 1930s looking fielded panelling on the rear wall, an old stone fireplace with display area to each side, some very old panelling with a window bench. Locals say the bar counter was moved from the lounge to the public bar in c.1980? At the rear is the modern skittle alley and large dining area.
