Country Gastro Pubs
These are the local Country Pubs serving good food
One of the nicest located country pubs on the downs, also one we rate highly for food. It’s part of a pretty village on one of the highest parts of the downs plateau. Excellent 1hr 20min walk, 30min bike ride or 15min drive.
One of our favourite places for Sunday lunch. Free house with fantastic range of craft ales, lagers and ciders

A genuine gastro-pub restaurant. Up there with the Plough at Stalisfield as one of the best local country pubs to arrive at the end of a country walk. Really great food and ales - also a free house. Serving what is probably the best food in the downs, it is a tad pricey but worth it.
