Our gardens are perhaps our most overlooked feature, if only because they are tucked away behind the Inn.  Take a leisurely stroll up our courtyard, and you will find them!  On a warm summer day, there is no nicer place to enjoy a few pints of our excellent beer, or a leisurely meal.

 

With only one way in and out, and walled on all sides, the gardens are safe for families with young children.  We welcome well behaved dogs, and water is always provided for them in hot weather.

 

This summer, we plan to add a boule court, more external lighting, and to bring our vegetable garden back to full productivity after last years appalling weather.

 

Despite the difficulties, last year the garden saw a great crop of soft fruit: apples; pears; peaches; plums; strawberries; raspberries; tayberries; blackberries; redcurrants; blackcurrants and gooseberries.  Our vegetables were less of a success – apart from the runner beans – but we are determined to do better this year.
