A beautiful village pub recently fully restored with a historic beamed bar, cosy snug room & elegant restaurant. A classic English beer garden and seating area to the front are great for Al fresco drinking and dining. 8 Brand new bedrooms opened during the summer 2016. We are proud partners with Lacons brewery and feature their range of top quality craft Ales.

Our food features traditional favorites as well as some interesting and great tasting contemporary dishes. Bar snacks and nibbles together with starters, mains, puddings and a children's menu ensures there is something for all tastes and occasions. From a scotch egg & a pint to a lovely 3 course celebration meal!

    This is a great “foodie” restaurant, the standard, presentation and quality of the food is very good. There were at least 2 vegetarian options, both of which were unusual and made a great change from what the average restaurant offers. Service was excellent despite it being a very busy lunchtime serving. The dining room was noisy due to being busy and next time we would opt to sit in the bar where the customers were quieter but overall everything was excellent

    There were 6 of us and each meal was beautifully cooked and served by pleasant, helpful and efficient staff. A perfect, pre-Christmas, family lunch.

    Another enjoyable evening in the Buck. The usual warm welcome. The seating had been re-arranged, so I did feel I was dining out with my neighbours, but not a big issue. Tried some different dishes and all very nice.

    Very welcoming. When booking we requested to sit in the bar area, but it happened to be very noisy. Because my husband wears a hearing aid we asked to be moved to the dining area. The waitress didn’t hesitate and relocated us to a more comfortable area. The food was really lovey and we will definitely be back in the new year.

    Great food and service as usual. Was a bit noisy today, but due to Christmas works lunches it was to be expected. The staff shouting over the diners very loudly to get people’s attention was perhaps a bit much. Made us jump a few times.
