    Tucked away in a beautiful area, lovely food and great service. I can imagine it particularly appealing and cosy in a Winter evening with the log fire on. I'll be coming back. 🙂

    We nearly missed it. Good old google Maps!! Went to the pub for a meal with friends on the bank holiday Monday, so expectedly busy, but they found us a table in the garden shed!! No, it was great, and under cover dining are with 4 - 5 tables. The service provided was excellent, a lovely meal with a pint of Guinness, what could be any better

    Great little pub. Just called for a drink whilst passing after a reasonable walk. Friendly staff made us feel welcome with locals making conversation with us. Looked at the food menu and it looked great. Maybe best to book as was quite busy early doors on a Wednesday evening.
