The small bar has many photos of what I assume to be customers past and present. When we called in last Sunday there were more people outside than in, a fairly large party of ramblers having stopped for a refreshment break. The two tables in front of the bar both had reserved signs on, which I thought was a little odd, so there was nowhere apart from the dining room or the outside benches for drinkers.

There used to be a campsite in the walled garden at the back, but the present landlady gave it up because of the extra cleaning of the toilets that this entailed. There are a couple of benches on the edge of the car park, where we made ourselves comfortable. The beers are from the Marstons stable, Pedigree and Burton, plus a seasonal from Wychwood, Cherry Picker.
