Pub's website indicates that it is a former pub. Now seems to be a licensed B&B only, although it has been found for sale on the internet. When a pub, there was a large bar area with sofas and armchairs and a restaurant that was separate from the bar area. Giggler cider (locally produced) was available in bottles.

Reopened on Monday 29th July 2013, after 5 years of being closed, with a gigantic local turn out. The building was fully restored with a 55% increase in size.

After two years, they gave up on being a pub and the building is now just a "licensed B&B". However, at the beginning of December 2016 the local press reported that planning permission for conversion to purely a B&B had been refused. We await further developments with interest.
