Dining
The Farmers Arms
Open fires and exposed timbers set against touches of contemporary design help make this restored Grade II pub, set in a delightful hamlet, a charming place for replenishment and recuperation. The frequently changing menus have an eye on sustainability and utilise quality ingredients from their farm, be it their own hogget or lemon verbena cleverly used to mimic the taste of lemon in a 'zero-mile' lemon geranium cake. Wonderful homemade syrups help create some refreshing aperitifs.
