The menu had a varied selection, and the fish and chips were freshly cooked with quality ingredients. The batter was crispy, and the cod was white, served with amazing freshly prepared chips. Compliments to the chef!

The location is superb, providing easy access to both the town and opportunities for country walks. It is very quiet, and only the church clock can be heard, but only after 7am. It made the sleep restorative.
