Really beautiful pub with lovely quiet surroundings. It has a small playpark for small children just opposite the front. There's a beer garden to the side. The inside is beautiful and really done out nice. The restaurant area is big and atmosphere was nice. The staff were friendly and the food was delicious. (I just had bar snacks)

Arrived without booking for a late lunch. Food was first class. I think staff were a bit preoccupied preparing for a wake party due a little later, but I had nothing to complain about.

Very good quality food and good service. The only issue was we were offered a desert menu and the waiter got tied up dealing with another customer and forgot to come back but excellent otherwise.
