Beautiful surroundings, amazing food and service Our family had the absolute pleasure of dining at the pub where Chef Lucian works on Christmas Eve, and it was an experience we’ll treasure forever. The pub itself is absolutely beautiful—cozy and warm, with a charming fireplace that created the perfect festive atmosphere for the evening. Each dish we tried was a masterpiece, beautifully crafted and bursting with flavor. I opted for the skate wing, which was cooked to perfection—delicate, tender, and paired with flavors that complemented it beautifully. My father had the turkey, which was moist, flavorful, and served with all the traditional trimmings, elevated to fine dining status. My mum enjoyed the braised beef, which was melt-in-the-mouth tender with a rich, savory sauce that was pure indulgence. My husband couldn’t stop raving about his chicken with saffron risotto, a dish that perfectly balanced hearty comfort and sophisticated elegance. Not only was the food incredible, but the service and atmosphere were equally outstanding. Lucian’s wife, Annie, who manages the pub, impressed us with her impeccable organizational skills and genuine politeness. She ensured everything ran seamlessly, creating a welcoming and relaxed environment for everyone. It was inspiring to see such a hardworking and talented duo at the helm. This was truly one of the best Christmas Eve dinners we’ve ever had. Between the incredible food, the inviting atmosphere of the pub, and the warmth and professionalism of the team, it was an unforgettable experience. We’re already looking forward to returning for more of Chef Lucian’s culinary brilliance and Annie’s exceptional hospitality. Thank you both for making our evening so special! ❤️

A very enjoyable lunch in a very well presented village pub with a nice traditional atmosphere in the restaurant. The menu is not extensive but with the daily specials it offers a good choice with some very interesting dishes. Food was very well prepared and presented and was very tasty. The Lemon Posset was the star of the show for me. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Well worth the detour to find this pub.

Clean and cozy rooms with very comfortable beds and a newly renovated bathroom. The restaurant had a very welcoming atmosphere with lots of photographs of celebrities. We enjoyed our meals there as the food was delicious and freshly made, the staff was really friendly and helpful. Every morning before breakfast we went to look, if the donkeys were already in front of the pub and every time they were there waiting for the pub to open ;-) we enjoyed these unique moments very much
