The original thatched pub has its origins in mediaeval times, and the beamed core of the building was a brewhouse in times gone by. Now, with alterations in the early 17th century & further alterations in Victorian times, the village has a charming local. Inside the small bar leads off to several dining areas, all comfortably furnished and tastefully decorated. The hosts have established a reputation for good homemade food with a menu that has dishes from Asia and the Mediterranean as well as English dishes.
