"A great local pub with good food and nice staff ."

9.0

Great local pub . Lovely meal in evening with 20% off as resident . Really nice menu , not some huge chain

Early traffic noise might aggravate some but is it in the middle of a village with through route . Make sure you sort parking out ?! It’s free and easy to do ?

Perfect location to explore the local area. The beautiful Waddesdon Manor (a must-see) is located just a few minutes' drive away. Large, free car park. The room (nr 2) was large (well, huge), (extremely) clean, and comfortable. Breakfast, which was included in the price, was delicious. We also had dinner - generous portions and delicious. The staff was friendly and service-minded.
