Children and minors
Whilst primarily an adult's environment, children are welcome in areas away from the bar, although the pub is not very suitable for babies and toddlers in the evenings. We have changing facilities and some high chairs available.
Disabled facilities
Disabled access is via the front car park and through the main entrance. We have a disabled toilet at ground level, so if you need a table that is close to disabled amenities, please let us know.
Prams and pushchairs
In our larger rooms we are able to accommodate prams and pushchairs, although some of the smaller areas are too constricted to allow us to do so. Please don't hesitate to ask if you need somewhere to store yours while you're with us.
Parking
We have a car park (including disabled parking) with easy access to the front entrance of the pub. Unfortunately we are not able to offer overnight parking for campervans or motorhomes. If you are looking for somewhere to stay, our next door neighbours 'Love2Stay' have overnight pitches with some facilities - Click here for details.
Bookings
We do take bookings, but we try to make sure that there is room for customers who are not able to book in advance, so if you have not made a reservation, it's not the end of the world. If there are no tables free we run a waiting list from behind the bar.
Please make bookings via our booking calendar or by calling us on. Unfortunately we are not able to take bookings via email or facebook.
We don't reserve any of our outside tables so if you enjoy a little alfresco dining these are on a first come first served basis.

Inside - someone will pop over and take your order.
Front and Rear Terrace - take a seat and we’ll pop over and take your order.
