What an incredibly friendly and welcoming place. Arrived late but was greeted with a smile and a cool drink. Locals were very helpful in suggesting walks and activities to do in the area. We need more of these little gems!
Cosy pub. Equipped with a games room. Small dining area - does have a larger dining room for busier times. Friendly service and wait for food not too long despite there being only one chef tonight. Food was very good and reasonably priced - much cheaper than Harvester and easily as good. We had chicken nuggets for the nipper which were very good. Ribeye steak for me and the wife each. Both were cooked very well and included chips, mushroom, peas and grilled toms. I was pleased to see sauce dianne as an accompaniment but sadly it let the otherwise great meal down being runny and bland.
Don't do a Sunday carvery but menu ok The cumberland sausage will take some beating. Excellent. The nut roast was brilliant but very filling. Selection of non alcoholic beers and cider. Pleasant people decent car park. Isolated location but good for travellers.
Excellent motorhome stopover quite secluded parking free electric if you eat in pub. Good basic pub food excellent beer welcoming landlady fresh cooked food.
Stayed over night on a brit Stop! For Motorhomes 674 in the book Arrived later than expected but received a lovely welcome from owners Ian & Al. Fabulous real ale spacious gardens great parking failities and play area for children. Chatted to some of the regulars who were very friendly. We'll worth a visit. 10 miles off the M6. We'll be back.
