Set in the heart of the picturesque village of Great Bowden, this charming country pub has recently been refurbished, with interiors and decor that beautifully reflect the surrounding countryside.
The team here are passionate about sustainability and high-quality meat. Where possible, they use meat from their own farm in Great Easton to create their dishes. Most ingredients are sourced locally as well, which means the menu can change slightly from day to day depending on what’s freshly available.
There’s also a great selection of drinks to enjoy alongside your meal — from real ales and lagers on tap to an impressive range of wines and champagne. Teas, coffees, and soft drinks are also available.
If you’re looking for something a little different, their cocktails and ever-popular spritzers are well worth exploring.
