A timeless feudal village is the setting for Matt, Charlie and Dan's beautifully restored 15th-century inn. Huge oak doors open to a cobbled courtyard and tithe-barn sitting room on one side (big sofas, a Sunday cinema), and bar and dining rooms on the other. Inside, a warren of passageways, low doorways, nooks, crannies and beams. Rugs on stone or wood floors, flickering candles on old dining tables, crackling log fires and elegant hues draw you in for local ales, fine wines and lovely pub food. Tuck into roast beef sandwiches with horseradish, rocket and chips; sea bream with white beans, chorizo, fennel and salsa verde; leg of lamb with roasted garlic; vanilla rice pudding. Effortless hospitality is a further plus.

Please note: the pub offers light wheelchair access so please chat to the team before your visit to check it would be suitable for you. They can provide ramps for the steps but there is no disabled access WC in the bar. One bedroom has wheelchair access on the ground floor. Dogs welcome in all public spaces (one bedroom is dog-friendly). Highchairs are available.
