Dig the Gardeners Arms
Part of the Hall & Woodhouse family of superb destination food pubs, and dating back to the 17th century, the Gardeners Arms is how we all imagine a country pub should be - cosy in the winter, with roaring log fires and traditional oak beams, and glorious in the summer, with a beautiful garden. The pub even has its own grape vines and wild deer visit occasionally! It is a characterful place that celebrates the joy of horticulture with pin‑ups of famous gardeners in the loos, along with a host of other quirky décor touches that bring the pub to life.
