Pub sign

After being closed for a period, the pub reopened in 2013 and is located right next door to Scuttler’s Wine Bar – a converted bookshop. The pub retains its original 1920’s tile work and the interior has been lovingly restored with wooden benches, a brick fireplace and period signs.

There are seven bedrooms offering good value accommodation with optional breakfast.
