The Navigation Inn, Wootton Wawen

The opening lines on the web-site for the Navigation Inn are �The Navigation Inn is a charming country pub and restaurant, set in the heart of the Warwickshire countryside� Oh only if this was true! The front of house staff are as welcoming as a veruca on ones foot and atmosphere is similar as being in the local morgue. God forbid if you should find yourself arriving a little later say after 9 o�clock as it is regularly closed after the last meal is served. Also be careful not to relax to long in the beer garden as the landlord Nicholas Brown likes his car park to be empty overnight and should you take a taxi home you will arrive the next day to find a note under your windscreen asking for a five pound parking fee and informing you that overnight parking is forbidden. Which is quite surprising as there are no signs indicating these finer points? My personal recommendation is if you can walk 5 more minutes into Wootton Waren your find a more welcome establishment with good food and great atmosphere.
