Enter to find lovely old flagstone floor, low ceilings, Courage, Pride, Landlord. Two real fires, a plasma in the front bar area, stained glass porthole window above the optics, dartboard & oche given their own space – 2 teams play out of here. Make sure you stroll into the large garden to check out the well-populated aviary, I’ll bet the large pub cat regularly does!

Good traditional pub with good beer, a very friendly landlady, and a lovely beer garden. Oh and Maverick the long haired cat.

This is a nice pub with a very traditional feel to it. It's got some low wooden beams which gives it character and is segmented so you should be able to find a peaceful corner. The ale is good and generally they are all available. There is a good food menu and portions that are generous. It's not the tastiest fare that I have ever had though, ny girlfriend's Lasagne was just a bowl of molten cheese.

The downsides are that the television uses freeview and the reception is not good in this part of the world. Also, the clientele is towards the more mature end of the age spectrum, targetted at the retirement blocks next door. There are signs which tempt you in with OAP specials which may (or may not) work for OAPs but probably tells others that this pub is not targetting them.

One last plus point, is the very pretty beer garden.

Not overly impressed with the food, but everything else about this pub is spot on. Great atmosphere, roaring fire, decent beer, friendly staff, large garden and kid-friendly too.

The Waggon is located to west of the village, The Atmosphere inside the Waggon & Horses is pure traditional country Pub.With dark beams, roaring log fire and uneven floors,Its not surpring to find that this is a place with regular customers who hold it dear, In keeping with the traditional feel, the menu offers A number of homemade meals, plus the waggon has a large Garden with wendy house for the childen.
