A very pleasant and quiet stay.

A great quiet country inn located in a country village, but only a few minutes drive to Winchester. Wonderful hospitality from the owner and staff. Extremely well-fitted out bedroom, with everything we required. We would certainly return if in the area again!

Great little pub

Beautiful village and great village pub feel. We had dinner at the pub and it was really good. The bathroom looked brand new and had a great powerful shower. Only thing to note - which was not a problem for us but could be to those with limited mobility is that I felt the stairs to the room were quite steep.

Wonderful stay!

What a charming place to stay! The Inn is quite picturesque and is in a quiet little village. Our room was very comfortable. Andrew and his wife are very helpful and welcoming. We had pizza at the inn which was very good. They also offer breakfast for £10. We highly recommend this place! Very close to Winchester.

A little gem….

Andrew is doing a fab job, making this lovely little pub the hub of the community, from the library to the 5km community run. It was such a warm welcome & did exactly what we needed it to do. We loved it & will certainly return if we are ever in the area again. Thank you Andrew for such a warm welcome & looking after us.

Staff are very friendly and the level of personal service is wonderful. It is an older building so some might think it quirky but I think it's charming. If you are looking for a traditional English pub stay experience in the rural beauty of Southern England - this is it!
