The White Horse, Edwardstone - pub details

Good ‘evens!

What a fantastic pub, brewery and campsite (all on the same site)

The ethos of the place has to be commended with locally sourced ingredients utilised in both the brewing process and the kitchen. Local ciders the beers brewed on−site are unique and worth sampling, then order up BIG!

People who care are what make this place a pleasure to visit, I suggest you do the same and witness the wind turbine, photovoltaics and solar thermals in action. Discuss the merits of the former whilst supping fino ale and scoffing tasty eateries before returning to your tent/cabin!

I have visited the Edwardstone White Horse many times in the past year, attending most of the beer festivals in 2010. There have always been at least 5 of their outstanding ales on and with the brewery, Mill Green, being on site the ales are always fresh and full of flavour. There is always the local cider on from the near by Castlings Heath, which is crisp and refreshing.

The atmosphere is one of a great country pub; the staff are always friendly and remember you. The food is excellent, rustic and locally sourced which is perfect for a country pub. The old pub games, open fires, regular music nights and regular beer festivals give the pub an electrifying buzz. The solar panels and wind turbine on site are testimony to the pubs endeavour to be the 'Greenest Pub in Britain' and I think it is essential that all businesses, big or small, should take head to be as sustainable as possible.

No trip to Suffolk would be complete without visiting and (speaking from experience) once you've been I guarantee you will want to return!

This was a good pub in years gone by, but having returned after some time, it has obviously changed from a warm, hospitable local to a very unwelcoming, second rate pub. The locals seemed friendly and chatty, but the rude and surly Landlord and his girlfriend are in the wrong business!

"The greenest pub in the world" – probably. A good pub – definitely. We went for Sunday roast (£10), and it was generous and obviously made from good quality ingredients. There were four of their own-brewed beers on, and very good they were too. Special mention must go to their dark Mild, which was a real treat (not least at £2.30 a pint!). There was also a fifth real ale, along with four real ciders. There's a lounge which goes through to a new build, providing plenty of room. The separate bar provided a child-free area to eat in, and has bar billiards. The only fault: they had run out of bottles of their beer to take away!

We went camping at this pub in June. There was a troop of Morris men and a big group of ex Scout masters camping too (why did they have to get up to chop wood for their fire at 5am??!!). Spent Friday night in the bar getting pie-eyed on the superb ales and enjoying the Morris men singing. Ended up in the local's only lock-in until 2am with some lads from the nearby villages. Everything a pub should be.
