Visited here today with my boyfriend and we both opted for the turkey roast dinner. The pub is gorgeous and the roast was honestly one of the best I've had. Very generous portion and every part of it was so tasty. All the staff were very tentative and friendly. Will definitely be back again very soon.
We went to a private function held in an outside room. The heating and log fire was fantastic. The staff were so obliging and the food good. I ordered fish and chips and it was wonderful. There were 28 of us and everyone seemed to enjoy the food.
Beautiful food in a scenic, peaceful setting. Friendly helpful staff, great ambience. Food is of high quality, tasty and flavoursome. Great menu, lovely old building. Can't fault it!
