    This is an excellent inn, with really good food even in the week after Christmas. Despite having only a few diners, the ambience is great with fires both ends of the pub and fabulous service. Thank you Jake and Zoe

    Fantastic service, matched by the setting and the food. Our first visit since recently moving and certainly won’t be our last. Loved the fact that Chef felt he had ‘done me out of some greens’ so sent an additional portion. The sauce with the Lamb Pie was amazing and the ladies were grateful for the Pork Collar recommendation.
