Liked: Small site, well maintained, quiet village, next door to pub which serves excellent food.
Disliked: Just thought it odd that the campsite owned by the pub is dog friendly but the pub isn't.

From the manager: We apologise for any confusion but the rule on dogs is clear on pitch up before booking. We love dogs but as a small country pub that is very very busy and food led we had to put a stop to dogs In the pub I'm afraid. Our village is full of dog owners like ourselves and they completely understood our decision to do this as it was causing a problem. Once again sorry for any confusion all we can do is put it in the site discription for people to read before booking. (which it is)
A good pit stop
