From The Good Pub Guide 1983: |
|
Don't come here expecting lavish
luxury: part of thie idyllic little hideaway's tremendous charm is its
unaffected simplicity, with plain country seats and settles under the low
ceilings of the two little rooms, a log-effect electric fire in the old
brick hearth, and photographs of the champion dachsunds which the owners
bred in the 1950s. At lunchtime in the week you might have the place to
yourself, when the old-fashioned garden with its verandah, sturdy wooden
seats, stone cherubs, mossy urn and clipped box and hawthorn hedges is
splendidly peaceful. There is a climbing-frame on the side lawn. Of course
it gets very busy at weekends and in the evenings. Well-kept ABC is tapped
from the cask in a back room; fresh-cut sandwiches; fruit machine. |
