Travellers Rest

Having booked afternoon tea in such a scenic spot, our expectations were high. We were greeted warmly, shown to a spot next to a roaring lig fire, and served drinks. My dietary needs were checked and our drinks orders taken. The tiered platters came shortly aftetwards, offering sandwiches with an array of favourite fillings, fresh cream meringues, and fruit scones with sliced cakes. On the way out, we treated ourselves to some of the traybakes to enjoy later. Although quiet, the character and charm of this 16th century property lends a lovely atmosphere. Is there anything better than sitting next to a real fire, spring sunshine streaming through the windows, sipping a tipple, and a tower of treats to hand? Highly recommend.

Nine of us went for lunch and received a warm welcome. The pub is cosy without being cramped and the beer was excellent. I have to say I think I had the best Haddock and chips I have ever eaten. The fish was perfectly cooked and flaked into juicy slices, the batter was crisp and the chips were fresh , Everyone was impressed with their meal. The bar was lined with old wood and had a comfortable feel. I do worry about the future of small pubs like this with the impending cost rises and hope it can weather the recession, because its a gem.
