They should take the dog friendly sign off the window. Our 5 month old puppy let out a couple barks and a different barmaid to the one who served us came over and said verbatim that 'thing ' is really doing everyone 's head in Turns out if your dark makes a noise then you 're public enemy number 1. Not going back again, definitley not a dog friendly pub so take those sings off, very rude interaction, could 've been solved with a simple, polite conversation. If she 'd have asked us to go outside because our dog doesnt seem settled then fair play, but the rudeness was not taken lightly. Really patronising. Also the music was poo. Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1

Went because the missus had seen it was a Marston's and thought it would be like the others we've visited. Disappointed that it was not. Very small premises makes that very difficult. Despite being relatively quiet, service was slow. Although there were draught soft drink options on view, only a small can was offered on ordering. Scenery setting is lovely, but the warmish air did draw out the bugs which made sitting outside less appealing. Area only accessible up some steps, which was not ideal for some of our party with mobility issues. Will suit some visitors, just not us. Parking: On road. Reserved spaces for motorbikes. Price per person: £1–10 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 3 Parking space: Difficult to find parking Parking options: Free street parking
