A pretty pub in a pretty village. We were staying at the camp site at Shallow Grange, about a mile away, and popped in here on our first evening to see what it was like. It's aimed pretty squarely at tourists and day trippers, with food and unchallenging beers of the sort that can be found in pubs like this the length of the country. Even the only locally produced beer was pretty bland. There's nothing actually wrong with the pub, and if pub food and bland beer is your thing, please join the other tourists beating a path to its door. We didn't bother coming back on subsequent nights.

Food - Good quality, fair portions, reasonably priced
Locals - Very friendly and up for a laugh, either at their expense or yours
General atmosphere - Excellent
Staff - Very friendly and efficient. Nothing is too much trouble
Beer - Kept and served superbly. Marstons Pedigree and Bitter and Adnams, being the stock ales. When we visited, Dark Knight (can't remember the Brewery) and Wincel Sir Philip were the guests. Both excellent brews
Toilets - Sparkling
Accommodation - Very clean and comfortable. We stayed for three nights
Return visit - Oh yes.

Cosy little pub at top of village, evidently noted for food but with some good ales too. Has one nice long room with tables either side, and a sort of snug area by the bar, with a couple of tables outside. Car parking in lane outside. Pleasant enough.
