The building has its origins in the 16th century and according to local repute, William Tyndale (he of Bible translation fame) lived there for a while.

My wife and I have been coming here for nearly three years now and the food is still the best around.

It's by far the best pub in Thornham, which might not seem like it's saying much considering the size of the town, but they've squeezed at least three of them into the area. Try the deals on the Pimms cups during the summer - one jug, four straws and you're as good as gold.

The menu is much more diverse than the pub's and every meal I've had there has been unfailing. Kids can play out back in the play area - much to the annoyance of the caravan owners directly behind it - and there's outdoor seating for when the sun decides to put his hat on. Never stayed in the rooms, though I know people who have and they've been quite pleased with them.

However, putting my pickiness aside it was worth paying just because of the location as I wanted to escape the hustle and bustle of city life, and this place ticks those boxes. Pub restaurant serves good food, although the service was a tad slow, but the meal was worth the wait in the end, as it was delish.
