Setting was idylic, bar area was cosy and warm especially when log fire was burning. Staff very welcoming and charming. Restuarant lovely and food excellent, limited menu but prepared fresh. Rooms very quaint, little one bedroom cottage, lounge area downstairs with Tv and upstairs a bedroom and bathroom with large bath and powerful shower. Will certainly return

Exceeded expectations

Really lovely pub in the quiet hamlet of DOWNHAM. Beautiful countryside and a great view from the much bigger than expected room.
