A. We have 2 fabulous pubs local to us:
1. The Fountain Head - a traditional local pub serving good food (check opening times as they vary). Approx 15 min walk from us down the lane, with a gentle hill climb coming back.
2. The Mason's Arms - a wonderful, well renowned pub serving excellent food (make sure you book with plenty of notice as it gets very busy, especially in peak season). You can walk vias back lanes, downhill and it will take you about 30min. Be prepared for the walk back, as parts are very steep, but it is worth it and you are spoilt with exceptional views! You can drive down and park at either Branoc Hall (with a 10min level walk) or park in their own car park. Alternatively you can catch the little bus hopper bus down to the village from the end of our driveway. The bus runs both ways 3 times a day.
