The Acorn Inn

Dogs are welcome everywhere in the pub including the restaurant. The pub is very much at the heart of the community, with a lively bar frequented by a great crowd of regulars who enjoy the real ales, quiz nights, skittles leagues and yard of ale drinking challenges in the company of laid back Jack. And yet the restaurant also wins top accolades from the serious foodies who come back time and again for the exceptional gastro experience.

It also recently received a full page rave review in Cond Nast Traveller, as well as the Sunday Mirror and the Sunday Telegraph. Its also named as one of Tom Chessyres Top 6 British Inns and highly rated in Alastair Sawdays Special Places to Stay.
