    This is the best pub for miles around. The Landlord goes above and beyond to make this place a pleasant , welcoming environment. The staff are so friendly and the drinks are varied and very reasonably priced with lots of specialised ales and Gins and even sells gluten free beer!. It has two large, beautiful function rooms available for hire and a large beer garden with a child friendly grassy play area. They have a very popular regular jam night PAC Club on Wednesdays which brings musicians and music lovers from miles around. To top it all off It just won pub of the year !

    Manager Barry is so lovely. Knows his stuff on Real Ales and regularly has beer festivals. Also the Gin Nights are very popular. Large garden out the back and smoke shelter. There is also a function room. Great place to drink and socialise
