E TA left this review about Black Horse
A single room 17th Century country pub with tiled floors, beams and a log fire. It retains a friendly village atmosphere, although the landlord can be a little caustic. If your mobile phone goes off while your here, he will try to throw it in the deep fryer, which is not the best approach to customer relations. However, food is excellent - imaginative, well prepared and in sensible portions. There is a large garden with plenty of parking, barbecue and children's play area. Beers are excellent, and are usually sourced from local breweries. This time I tried the Ringwood Best and it was in perfect condition. Hidden away in the Avon Valley to the South of Amesbury, this pub is well worth seeking out for a meal (group or individual) or a decent pint, and is worth including in a motorised crawl (note that it doesn't open on Mondays in the Winter).
