Re-opened in November 2013 after a period of closure which led to speculation over its future, the new owners have invested in a new kitchen, extended bar and redecoration to return the pub back to the community. This cosy nook is entered down a wide flight of steps via a patio. The open plan bar has a TV neatly fitted into a stone fireplace at the servery end and a games section at the other. A small lounge adjoins. A little off the beaten track, the nearby disused railway track and hilly surrounds attracts walkers. Dogs are welcome as long a they are clean, well-behaved and on a lead. The guest ale may be unusual for the area.
