The Dinton Hermit, Aylesbury

Stone built old building with oak doors and very low ceilings,exposed beams and a quarry tiled room on entry.The reception and bar is small while the two other sections were dining areas,the far end quite a discreet space.Drinking can take place around the bar,although most visitors on a Friday lunchtime were in for a meal.It's rustic with traditional wooden furniture but quite loud muzak,and there is table service for food. There were two handpumps,one reversed the other serving a decent Vale Best Bitter and the food menu was upmarket pub grub with good cooking quality.Mains generally £7 - £11,you could have a full three courses. Based in the quiet hamlet of Ford with accomodation in a seperate building.a get away from it all location and a good spot for something to eat.Not really a place for an ale session,but there are free papers and boxed games to while away a few hours.
