A traditional beamed family pub in a lovely country setting. The interior is a mix of old alongside new, with a games room with pool and darts, and a cellar for events. A garden offers a separate sheltered smoking area. The focus is real ale with fast moving guest ales. A weekly meat raffle is held on Sunday afternoons. Regular music events take place including a monthly open mic night.
