Lovely Atmosphere, Impressive Menus
This is a cosy, charming spot with a theme of World War II aircraft pilots to match the nearby museum. Perfectly situated to use as a base from which to explore attractions of the surrounding regions. Tasty, unique menus change with the seasons and offer a wide assortment of nearly every conceivable type of dish from burgers to fresh fish, desserts and homemade gnocchi. Breakfast is served fresh daily with plenty of high quality hot and cold options. The real log fire and thatched roof contribute to the character and create a pleasant atmosphere. The car park is ample and garden sitting area is serene, and the locals and staff alike work from the moment of your arrival to make you feel like part of the community.
