Beautiful old pub in the countryside. The food was really excellent. My wife and I both had the hake with crushed new potatoes, lemon butter, prawns, cockles and samphire. Everything was cooked perfectly and the fish was delicious. Landlady & staff provided very welcoming great service too. Highly recommend.

One of the best Sunday roasts we’ve had for a while. On the pricey side but good as a treat.

Lovely traditional old pub in a great location on the Ashdown forest. Good atmosphere, tasty and well prepared food with staff happy to accommodate your wishes. Was a bit too breezy on our visit, but plenty of sweet outdoor seating as well. Definitely recommend.

Excellent food and service. This is not cheap but you are paying for quality. Don't expect pub grub, this is good restaurant standard.
