We've been going to this pub for the last 6 years, even though it's 15 miles away - because it was such a good find and the food was great quality and good value. It was the place we'd take friends if they were visiting, and was the osrt of place where the chef would take the sunday joint of beef off the menu if he wasn't satisfied with its quality.

However, last time we went we were disappointed - the food menu had become run of the mill and boring (scampi, sausage and mash, steak etc) and increased significantly in price. In the end, we decided not to eat there and went to another pub nearby. There was hardly a meal for less than £10 - a 15-20% increase on previous prices.

I don't know whether this is because it has changed hands recently and the new owners have reverted to the 'traditional food at restaurant prices' philosophy that so many pubs have now - but it was certainly a step down from the many previous occasions we'd eaten there.

The location, decor, garden and beer are still lovely - it's a stand-out pub in those respects, but I rerally hope the landlord looks agin at the food offer to tempt us back on a regular basis!

This is just one of those pubs you feel lucky to have found, its off the beaten track in a wonderful old candlelit georgian (?)building with fantastic ales on tap and a restaurant out the back that just keeps things nice and simple and all very reasonable.

An absolute gem of a pub! Have been coming to this place on and off for a number of years and despite several changes in ownership, it has kept its character. Excellent roast beef lunch - one of the best I've eaten! A fine selection of well kept real ales, too. The previous review is spot on : you do .."leave this place with a sense of wellbeing and contentment."

A brilliant country pub hidden away in a charming little village, visit on a warm summer evening, sit in the stunning garden, absorb the tranquil views, finally decide on what you want eat, feast, give thanks to the landlord and leave with a sense of wellbeing and contentment.

Had a Sunday lunch here. Excellent roast and reasonable price. Taylor's Landlord was very good. Building looks a little odd (i.e., has character), inside and outside, being an ex-tannery. Staff were very friendly.
