Beautifully-maintained, spacious and light, featuring an atmospheric heated ski lodge marquee and with vast gardens and terraces, this is a pub for all seasons and all occasions.

Telephone issues
We are having an ongoing but intermittent issue with our phone lines.
If the phone rings but you can’t connect we will endeavour to call you back from our mobile phones.
Alternatively click’ Book a Table’ below and follow the instructions.
We hope that this will only be temporary. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Booking a Table
Book a table here for up to 13 guests or by phone or contact form (below) for enquiries of 14 or more guests. We have two zones: the pub and the heated Ski Lodge. Simply click Book A Table, select the table size and then select either zone from the drop down menu. Larger tables of 14+ will be offered a bespoke menu or simplified version of the current main menu. You can amend your reservation at any time by clicking amend booking in your confirmation email, or by calling us.
We currently have 12 tables on the front terrace, available by request, first come first served. They will be available for online booking when demand/weather necessitates. The opening of the lawned gardens has been delayed due to the poor weather this spring. We are currently waiting for grass to repair and are building a new dining area. Expecting opening Whitsun Bank Holiday weekend.
There is no need to make online reservations for drinks. If you anticipate being part of a large drinking group and want to be assured of space then give us a call. Dogs are welcome in all areas except the dining room (from Monday to Saturday).
