    This was our second visit and both have been great. The tables are nicely spaced and the atmosphere very pleasant. Food was excellent, as was service. Car park is also spacious.

    Great Sunday Lunch. Been a few times now and we’ll be back. Better than the Oakley Arms which is just down the road.
