The good pub guide review

This popular red-brick pub is set in spacious, pleasant gardens. Rather a grand building, the open doorways and stairs cleverly divide up the spreading rooms, while big windows and mirrors keep everything light and airy. There's a relaxed atmosphere and an eclectic mix of furniture on tiled or wooden flooring, hundreds of prints and photos on cream walls, fireplaces and thoughtful touches such as table lamps, books, rugs, fresh flowers and pot plants; background music. Served from an impressive counter by friendly staff, the fine range of drinks includes St Austell Brunning & Price Traditional Bitter plus guests from breweries such as Leighton Buzzard, Redemption, Sambrooks, Tring, Twickenham and Weltons on handpump, 20 wines by the glass, 30 gins and a large choice of whiskies. The garden is particularly attractive, with a range of seats, tables and picnic-sets on a tree-surrounded terrace and lawn, and a tractor in the popular play area.
