Dear Friends,

Firstly, a word of sincere thanks to those of you who have joined us over the past few weeks, and braved the chilly weather. It’s a joy to see you again and start to have some semblance of normality!
We hope to be able to welcome you inside from 19th May.
Online reservations can be made for tables from 19th May. We will be open for lunch and dinner Wednesday to Sunday inclusive. Some restrictions still exist and for brevity these are the key points to remember.

- The Rule of Six or two households
- Hands – there is sanitiser located outside the pub and by the toilets
- Face – bring a facemask, you’ll need it if you go to spend to spend a penny!
- Space – Whilst we would love to shake your hand or give you a hug, social distancing is still required.

NHS track and trace/Check in is now required for all guests.

As we will be returning to normal, we have decided now is the time to stop Take Away Fish and Chips on Friday and the shop will no longer be available. We are simply too small a team to do the groceries, guest rooms, breakfast service and then lunch and dinner.
Last orders for Fish and chips will be Friday 14th May and for the shop the weekend of 14th and 15th May.

I would like to thank you all for all the support you have given us over the past 12 months. It has been a joy to serve you and it also gave me a sense of purpose and sanity in the most difficult of months. You have helped us survive as a business.

As many of you know, we have planning permission to convert our barn into a small shop. When funds allow, it’s a project I would like to fulfill and be able to offer the village. It sadly, will not be this year. Now is the time to hang up my Arkwright apron and move to being a publican again. Thank you.
