Yes, there is room to park the horse, just as long as you don't mind being surrounded by widely scattered rubbish in the car park, next to the recycling skip and having to negotiate round the remains of a bonfire full of 4" nails. Paid £5.95 for two slices of supermarket bread containing a few thin slices of brie and some cranberry sauce, not sign of promised grapes. Oh, and a quarter tomato and piece of lettuce which looked second hand. Publican quite unconcerned when I expressed disappointment. A lovely situation but I shall park the horse elsewhere in future!

My husband went on a Saturday night and were very disappointed! The restaurant was empty (never a good sign!) they were very understaffed, with the landlady doing the cooking and one barlady doing everything else and the food was very average.

We went to the bar to order our food and the rather unwelcoming landlady rudely informed us they had run out of most things on the menu. We made our order and went to our table which was dirty from lunchtime and then my husband used the loos and said they were filthy!

Our food arrived and had obviously just been put in the mircrowave, the vegetables were overdone and my pie soggy! My husband's scampie was good however.

The pub is in such a lovely location, but it is run down, the garden is tatty, the interior needs some work and the landlards are unwelcoming and clearly have no interest in providing a good service.

This pub simply wins out because of its splendid location in the heart of the Surrey country and for that alone it is worth a visit.

Indeed this pub seems to be tucked away from many other pubs and if thirsty or in need of something to eat this is the place to.

Drinks wise there was a couple of ales on only but you can always have a soft drink. Eating wise plenty of choice of food and vegetarian dishes too.

Overall the pub seemed a little on the run-down side as. Perhaps it could do with a little smartening up but if in the area its really the only choice.

Used to go to the Villagers (20) years ago for a decent pint, good atmosphere and occassionally good live music. Returned for the first time a couple of weeks ago and very disappointed. Looks like its heading rapidly down hill and needs saving from neglect. An average pint, disinterested staff and tatty garden. Closed mid afternoon (Saturday), presumably not for the purposes of cleaning or staff training !

Its like stepping back in time as you go through the door.Its a down to earth pub in a lovely country setting.The lager we had was fine there were 2 ales on Weltons brewery I think.Did not eat so no comment on food.
