The emphasis at the Black Horse is on quality food, all locally sourced, from high quality suppliers, the meat in fact being delivered from a butcher only a mile down the road. The theme for the food is varied, an excellent selection of traditional English dishes in keeping with the traditional countryside location of the Inn. The restaurant also offers an exciting selection of a la carter dishes and regularly changing specials, to keep the offering fresh and varied. The restaurant menu will really get your tastebuds going, and all of the dishes are lovingly prepared onsite by our talented brigade of trained chefs.

An 18th Century Inn, the Black Horse Inn has been a refuge, providing a welcome rest, food and sustenance, and more importantly watering weary travellers for hundreds of years. The selection of ale and wine is second to none, and testament to many years of experience providing excellent hospitality.

The ale and wine offering at the Black Horse, has a similar ethos to the food. To use locally sourced suppliers, Brewers and wineries to provide a wide and varied selection of products that are able to stand up against more mainstream competitors.

Accommodation and evening meal were excellent. Good choice of cooked breakfast but, maybe due to Covid restrictions, no cereal or buffet breakfast.

Was unhappy when, on returning home, noticed we had been charged £30 gratuity which was not discussed beforehand!

Really wonderful meal & service. Will definitely be back. Just a bit surprised the waiting staff weren't wearing face masks.

Easy to book. Great food in a very pleasant pub. Although a little difficult to find as we are from out of town, we'd be more than happy to eat here again!

We have been to the Black Horse before and once again decided to use the pub for our Christmas celebrations. They are able to cater for our varied needs including two dogs. The staff were most helpful and the accommodation was spacious and comfortable. We used the dog loft for our meals which were most enjoyable from a comprehensive menu. The old world charm of the pub with its tasteful Christmas decorations and warm fires were ideal. It was such a good way to start our Christmas celebration after a very difficult time because of covid. Thank you to all the staff.
