The Combermere Arms

This classic 17th-century country inn is popular with local shoots, walkers and town folk alike. Its interior retains great character and warmth. Three roaring fires complement the wealth of oak, nooks and crannies, pictures and old furniture. Food options range from sandwiches and light bites such as crab linguine with ginger, red chilli and coriander through to a hearty meal of duck liver and port pâté with red onion marmalade followed by braised lamb shoulder with rosemary gravy and dauphinoise potatoes. There is a great choice of real ales and ciders, an informative wine list and impressive cheese list.
