One of those panicky moments when the pub seems to be in darkness with front doors firmly closed. However peering through a window showed life within, and the door did open. The aged main bar features a heavily beamed ceiling, a part flagstoned floor and an inglenook fireplace, although that is a bit hidden behind a tall table. The separate side bar is a bit more spartan, while the extended dining room behind is now billed as the' Hidden Restaurant' and includes a large tabled patio. Still just Harveys Best and Tribute on handpump but condition was good.

Located on the High Street in Great Bookham, the presence of a car park with paid parking and cameras to enforce it was a unwelcome first sight. We decided not to use the car park and park on the street instead.
The welcome wasn't particularly warm either. However, this local pub has a number of rooms with some character. The real ale range was somewhat disappointing with just Harvey's Sussex Best Bitter & St Austell Tribute on cask.
