A nice pub but the food was overpriced and I was dissapointed with the quality of the beer.

I'm afraid I only gave this place 7/10, but would probably have been higher if I'd stayed to eat. A good little pub in a pretty little village, and the menu certainly looked very tempting. This is the village where Steve Marriott died in a house fire, and the pub still collects for the fire brigade. There are lots of thatched cottages in the village.

Lovely place, top quality Speckled Hen, friendly, but disappointed by the food. Small portion of cod, indifferent chips and veg., £9+

Arrived late on a Sunday very muddy and tired after a long walk and just in time to order food. Lovely ambience and very friendly, helpful staff. Food was excellent, very tasty and huge portions.

Good Food, friendly staff, good beer. A couple of "bad" pints
were changed without any problems
at all. Overall att 10/10 pub!
