January 28, 2008 Ah, ticks all the boxes. Roaring fire, nooks and crannies, decent sausages, Champion Beer of Britain 2007 on handpull, buxom wenches - well, it was the weekend of the medieval fayre at the castle. Evern the ipod-driven music was eclectic and entertaining. Well worth the visit. |

July 24, 2007 Funny little local, but with a great selection of beers. Staff extremely friendly and the bar was full of interesting characters. I’m sure it will be the only time I will hear "Did I hear you mention corregated iron?" shouted across the bar and then for the two old fella’s to start exhanging corregated iron facts and history! |

May 1, 2007 Visited here in March and was very impressed. Great selection of real ales, and a friendly lively pub that had a good mixture of age ranges. Service was good and would reccomend to anyone in the area. |

September 6, 2005 Excellent pub with 8 interesting real ales, well kept. We stayed over - the aaccommodation is cheap & clean. We got a room with a spa bath and a balcony with a view of the church. The food was very good trad pub food. There is a separate room for non-smokers as well as a no-smoking area within the main bar.

April 5, 2004 The Church Inn is a gem within many gems. It is a true Free House run by a CAMRA member who has a particular interest in providing top notch local beers with a choice of interesting guests. Along with the English Ales a good selection of Belgian and German Beers are also sold in correct glassware. The pub is always packed to the rafters on a friday / Saturday right throughout the day and the locals are proud to have this classic in their town. The food is traditional and consistently good.
The region is well worth a visit as it is very traditional and unspoilt. |
