SAID TO BE THE FRIENDLIEST PUB IN THE NEW FOREST

Our Pub

A Family Run Pub

Our staff are so welcoming and genuinely care that you have an enjoyable time with us from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave.  The relaxed ambience is complimented by our delicious food and quality real ales and wines.

History

The new forest inn began as a caravan serving ale back in the 18th century.  Nowadays, it has been owned and run by the same family since 2008 who have a passion for fresh food and excellent service.  The pub has always welcomed muddy boots and dogs whatever the season.
