Delicious lunch, all four mains tasty and beautifully presented; two of us enjoyed the posset dessert; nice tea/coffees; friendly, unobtrusive service; lovely building. Gents is outside, but facilities clean and modern. No more to say!

I booked a table for two for Sunday lunch in the main pub several days in advance and confirmed by email as requested but when we arrived were ushered into a large marquee. I protested but was told that this was an ''overflow facility'' yet whenI went into the pub itself there were several empty tables set for lunch. This is very poor. Every inch of the pub floor was crammed with tables and diners so it would not have been that pleasant anyway but certainy better than the marquee. We were seated in the corner and the awning was torn in several places so as it was a cold wet windy day we were subjected to frequent icy blasts. I ordered the roast beef and it came within seconds which made I think it had been sliced previously and warmed over. It was sliced wafer thin, very soft and bland and virtually tasteless. Soggy Yorkshire, average vegetables and generic gloopy gravy. It reminded me of that roast beef you get in a TV dinner. I went on the basis of this pub having just been awarded the UK's Pub of the Year 2024. I cannot imagine how.
