This historic inn is surrounded by the lush and mysterious countryside of Dartmoor National Park and is renowned as one of Britain's most unusual pubs. The building has a mix of the original stone and wooden structures, with gothic arches, a wooden door from a whaler, a serpent and numerous other antiques, which revive the charm of bygone times. It was originally built as an inn in 1282 and has undergone several transformations since.

Formerly owned by Rita and Buster Jones, who ran it with passion for several decades, the establishment is today in the capable hands of their daughter Sally and her husband Bruce. The family takes great pride in catering for different occasions, from intimate dinners to weddings.

The Rita Jones, Locker, Lounge and the Snug bars provides a distinct ambience but they are great to relax in over a drink. The inn also has a few rooms for guests wanting to stay over and take a break. While they have lunch and dinnertime fare, Bruce is well known for his breakfast specials. He uses organic produce and ensures vegetarians have enough choices too.
