Perfect Plough - Close to Southampton
Part of the Hall & Woodhouse family of exceptional pubs at the heart of the community, the Plough is situated on the edge of Bursledon surrounded by farmland but close to the city. Inspired by astronomy, the pub takes its name from the Plough star constellation, which (at night) lights up in the wall adjacent to the main entrance. With a beautiful garden and children's play area, the pub is ideal for those long hot summers and when the nights start to draw in, the roaring log fire and cosy interior really come into their own.
