The Bowl Inn is now under new ownership and the owners are putting their stamp on this charming country Inn. So come and enjoy our newly refurbished bar and warm yourself by the open fire. With quirky and fun interior decoration, classic bar food, friendly bar staff. Join the crowds and learn what all the fuss is about. We are a freehouse, so we can offer very competitive prices and a good selection of local ales and continental lagers. Our wine is chosen with care and our list varies from a French pinot noir to a refreshing Chilean sauvignon blanc. The pub is family owned and run by a father and daughter partnership, Sam and Pete. With twenty years experience we hopefully know what we are doing! Our experienced staff at the bowl are all friendly and welcoming and will make your visit or stay a very pleasant and memorable one. This is a proper country inn! Full of charm and character and fairly friendly regulars so come on and enjoy the tipple of your choice. Kids and dogs very welcome.
