I live abroad, but always enjoy going to this pub when I'm over. Lovely warm, kind and very friendly place to be! The locals have always welcomed me with open arms. Great place! 5 star!

I love this estate pub. We only ever use the lounge as there is a bar/sports room. Always got the latest football on. Staff are always friendly and the prices are a fraction of the prices charged at the local chain pub. The lounge is decorated to be welcoming and it always is. My wife would say where else in the country can you get a bottle of wine for a tenner. If you haven't been down there give it a try, it's worth it.
