This 17th-century building is thought to have originally been a weaver's cottage. A pub since the 19th century, it retains many original features including old timbers, open fires and beamed ceiling - a convenient place to hang the collection of blow lamps and beer mugs. Recently purchased from Greene King by Graham Sharp and Yvonne Shanks. The pub is being redecorated and we hope to see its return to the form it was in, when it won branch pub of the year in 2006 and 2007. Well filled rolls available and free cheeseboard on the bar.

Lovely country pub. Has had a number of owners since the couple who ran it for decades. They sold up 15-20 years ago. Lively customers, mostly from the village, Hemington and has bucked the trend for closed rural pubs, although I think it has struggled in the past number of years. Passable range of real ales, good quality, reasonable prices.
Fantastic pub. Very welcoming staff. The pizzas are amazing. Will definitely visit again.
A well kept pub with a great outdoor space that’s set in a beautiful typical English village. The beer is always good whenever we’ve been here with a great selection that seems to change weekly. There’s always pork pie available and freshly made pizza every day apart from Monday. The staff are always friendly, and they allow well behaved dogs in too.
We had a really good afternoon. The sun was shining, the food was great and they had live music from a young man which was excellent. I will keep an eye out for when he is next playing!
Best pub in the area, bar non. The two lads that have this pub are doing an impeccable job. I love coming here. Ace ales and the pizza is lovely, as well as the other bar snacks. Fantastic beer garden, also. Plus there’s regular live music. Me favourite pub! Keep doing what you’re doing. Superb lads.
