Since the new owners took over in 2019 this C18th Grade II former mill set in two acres of a wooded hollow at the end of a leafy lane has been transformed. The open plan lounge is cosy yet airy in spite of it's low ceilings, with the bar occupying the full width at the back. Tables and chairs a plenty provide a well balanced combination for drinkers and diners. A new kitchen was installed in 2021 and good quality food is served. B&B is available in five bedrooms. Outside, there is a large beer garden with a pop-up bar in summer and an extensive playground and a pets corner for the kids. Ducks, geese and chickens roam free. Camper van patrons are welcome to use the carpark overnight if dining. Their infamous Pullman railway coach has now been sold to a preservation society and is awaiting collection. Historical note. The 35' waterwheel was installed in the 1990s and is a replica of the one washed away, along with outbuildings and the landlord in the great flood of 1930. Dick Turpin is reputed to have held up a coach nearby on the lane.
