The Forester
Descripción
The Forester, originally known as the ‘New Inn’, dates back to the 17th Century. This charming thatched property, constructed from green sandstone, retains many of its historical features. The thatched roof was recently replaced in August 2021. Recognised for its homemade locally sourced food, this food-focused pub has earned an excellent reputation both locally and regionally for offering quality food with great customer service. Recently, two new letting rooms have been completely renovated and are now available for guests, which are in high demand in the area. Having been purchased by the current owners in early 2022, owners have chosen to close the pub at the end of January 2025 to focus on their other other businesses.
