A decent looking pub at the foot of Cheddar Gorge, there is elevated patio to make the most of the views as well as a conservatory for when it’s not quite warm enough to sit outside.

Unfortunately though, once you get inside it’s really a bit of a disappointment. It all looks a bit tatty with wood effect lino on the floor, shabby cream paintwork and stained seating. The pub consists of three fairly narrow rooms, with the central one housing the bar counter and a pool table in one to the left. Some contrasting grey paint was on the timberwork and the radio was on a little too loudly. Unsurprisingly it was very quiet on our recent early evening visit, with the couple running it sat outside on the patio having a fag and one other person in the conservatory. We had planned on eating, but the kitchen closes at 5:00pm and several other potential punters left whilst we were there.

Beers on tap were Wadworth Horizon and Butcombe, whilst the ciders were a trio from Thatcher’s – Gold, Haze and Cheddar Valley. All in all I can see little reason to visit here unless it perhaps to have a pint sat outside in the sun.
