"Oh dear, how sad this beautiful rural pub has been completely ruined by a landlady who openly only cares about taking your money and wanting you to buy overly expensive food on a very limited menu no vegetarian options at all). I really wanted to see this pub as my late grandparents had met there many years ago, we have history in the area too as they owned farmland there. On arrival were greeted by a woman whose smile was so false and reminded me of an uptight primary school teacher, who desperately wanted us to buy food and not just drinks. We felt hurried into making a decision of a very slim selection of drinks. I had a coffee that was about 3 mouthfuls. The garden and pub itself is beautiful, and worth seeing. However, our experience was ruined by a landlady who obviously only bought this pub to turn it into a gastro pub and and cash cow. With obviously no interest in the local history at all, after my husband tried t make a conversation about the family we had had in the area. She just asked if he wanted a menu!! A word of advice would be, from a business perspective would be to at least fein some interest. Sadly it is not the quaint little rural pub that it should be, while I understand making a profit is paramount in business at least try and be more genuine if you would like people to return and buy overly priced food. And at least pretend you are interested in local history, because guess what that might be the reason people are going there. It was obviously a pub, in a very small village that was once the heart of the community."

Great pub. Dropped in after a lovely local walk. Friendly staff, wonderful food and lovely gardens. Had the celeriac soup which was delicious.

Really worth the trip out to this Pub. Very good food and always some interesting beer too. We can't wait to go back so hopefully see you very soon

Soup was expensive, when I pay £22 for Sunday roast I expect perfection, it wasn't, the roast potatoes were hard, I suspect cooked early that morning and kept warm till lunch and the Yorkshire pudding was an insult to Yorkshire. Voir le carte

5 stars to Nicky Rees and the team for our secret dining experience on Saturday eve. From the welcome cocktail through the 6 wonderful courses we were guessing the locally sourced ingredients we were close on some but not all. Great hosting and fabulous cheffing we will be back but it’s got such a fab reputation we will have to wait until Feb for our next experience. Well done guys

Myself and my partner decided to give this place a go as was recommended by a host of a place where we were staying. The menu was full of choices and we both decided to go for the long horn beef. A perfect time of not feeling rushed and when the dinners came out, they looked amazing. We both agreed that it was the best roast dinner EVER.!! Everything was cooked to perfection and even made a point of thanking the chef as it was that good. If you don’t try this, you will be missing out. And thanks to the chef again.!!

This is surely one of the nicest pubs to stumble across. Set in an incredible location, it is exactly what you would want from a 'proper ' country pub. The landlady is so welcoming and warm and the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. We had dinner and the food was great value and absolutely delicious. My venison steak was perfectly cooked, which is a skil!. All the food is locally sourced and great attention goes into making it attractive and good value. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a traditional English pub with great food. Lovely place with lovely folk. Voir le carte

What a fantastic experience from start to finish. We were greeted by two lovely ladies who couldn’t be friendlier and more accommodating. Sat by the fire place with the resident pet, Basil. For a Wednesday lunch time, the pub was full of families and groups of shooting parties. We had the loveliest food we’ve had for a long time. Our starter of crispy pork bits, although sounded simple, it was cooked perfectly and delicious. Partridge for mains with the most scrumptious jus, was simply sublime. We also had the beef cheeks in a bun which again was cooked perfectly and so tender. The dessert had to be the panna cotta. So light and had the perfect wobble. We can not wait to visit again. Highly...

We took the dog, Wooster, for his walk from Lower Upham to this pub on a pleasant October morning, and found the welcome we received as strangers so warm that we stayed for lunch! It was well worth stopping here by the log fire, where Basil, another rescue dog, sat next to me immediately. Service was excellent, and the food a surprisingly home made treat none of the chain made stuff of bland menus to be found here. I ordered the cream of onion soup, served with a slice of bread and real chunk of butter, hot and delicious; my partner elected to have the salted cod croquettes, which were declared excellent. Desserts we enjoyed were sticky ginger pudding with ice cream (lovely gingery flavour t...
