The Hop and Kilderkin, Winton

Think this pubs rating is being dragged down by older reviews. Had a pint of the St Edmunds Ale last saturday and it was perfect. Decor fine, a little boisterous for my liking but that's cos of the sky footie that was on. A solid 6 and would return here again.

Dean Park Inn, Bournemouth

Good beer festival here last weekend [28th], and seem to have a cider fest coming up end march. This is easily one of the best real ale pubs in Bournemouth, and recommend it.

The Junction Inn, Groombridge

Visited here on a trip on the Spa Valley railway. Nice enough pub just a few mins walk from the nearby steam railway station. Didn't have any food so can't comment on that, beer (the local Groombridge "Black Cat" brewery) was perfectly ok but price wasn't - �3.60 pint for something brewed a few hundred yards away ! Would probably have had another pint if not for the price. Could do with more beer choice too.
