Thankfully it was on the way back to our cottage so we went. I am thankful we did. The pub is amazing. Built circa 1420, it is everything you could want in a country Pub. Low ceilings, fireplaces and a friendly staff. To top it all off the food is amazing! We were there before 6:30 so we ordered from the bar menu. Farmhouse hash, which consisted off a Lamb and Onion hash topped with an over medium farm egg, covered with a gravy sauce. So stinking good. My wife had the Cod and Salmon fish cakes with homemade tarter. So fresh and tasty. Our girls shared the Rarebit and it was delicious. If we lived locally, we'd eat here all the time. It is definitely worth going out of the way for.

I'd heard uniformly good things about the Three Chimneys pub in Kent. It very nearly lived up to…read moreall of them. There's a mistake behind its name: the pub has but two chimneys. Apparently, during some past English/French conflict, French prisoners kept nearby were allowed to walk no farther than this pub. Because it's at the intersection of three roads the Gallic prisoners called the point les trois chemins. British tongues being as deft then as now, this got anglicised to the three chimneys. It's a very old pub with old, rough, head-bangingly low beams. It's broken up into several rooms and has a huge fireplace. There are two large outdoor areas for eating and drinking now, though. They provided table service for food orders and drinks in the back. Lots of real ales on tap, spigotted right from kegs setting in plain sight. Two Adnams', the Welsh Brains bitter, and a few others I wasn't familiar with. The food is a great attraction, though. The menu is nearly gourmet, and prices are as in London: starts are around £6 to £8, and mains are around the £15 mark. The starters we had - baked figs, and field mushroom with melted brie - were delicious. HOWEVER, just as we were wondering about the long time it was taking for our mains they came out and told us that the power had gone out in the pub. They couldn't cook anything, and were afraid to open the fridge without knowing how long they'd be without electricity. I can't fault them for that accident, I guess. Everything else about the pub was great. There's a very beautiful garden out back. It's within walking distance of Sissinghurst Castle, which has a National Trust garden.

The costs can be a little bit higher for lunch but the menu is very similar and therefore for dinner, I thought it was quite reasonable.

A great, slightly quirky, traditional pub in a great Sussex village…read more You won't find Chiddingly by accident - it's off a narrow lane off the A22, between Lewes and Eastbourne. The village itself dates back to Domesday and has a fine mediaeval church (worth a visit while there). In fact, the village has 55 entries in the listed building guide, so there's more than enough history to occupy the most hardened tourist before retiring to the pub for refreshment. The pub building dates back to 1774 (and possibly earlier) and is a Grade II listed building; the frontage of blue and red bricks looks suitably traditional, and through the front door there is a main bar area to the left and a wonderful snug room (with a huge fireplace) to the right. The interior is all wooden beams and stone floors, with a bar serving a good selection of real ales and generous portions of traditional pub grub, all with friendly bar staff. (NB The food is popular, so be prepared to wait at busy periods). Towards the rear of the pub, the walls are festooned with old pictures and photographs, and a motorcycling theme predominates: it is a well-known meeting place for bikers, and there's a club board by the back door giving details of events, runs, etc. Outside is a large garden, with lots of seating. The rear of the pub is decorated with old enamel advertising signs, covering every subject imaginable. Also at the back is the large, surfaced car park - perfect for rows of shiny (or, in my case, not so shiny) motorbikes. If all that wasn't enough, the pub also host a fortnightly folk and blues club (http://www.6bellsfolk.co.uk ) as well as its biker meets. Oh, and on my last visit, my mate and I (on our bikes) opted for 2 pints of soda and lime to quench our thirst, with a couple of packets of crisps. It came to £1.80. How great it is, not to feel ripped off with outrageously priced soft drinks! (Next time, though, I'll get someone else to drive so I can sample the real ales...)
