Ian, Andrew and the team welcome you to the John Barleycorn, our traditional thatched village country pub, full of character and charm that has been providing hospitality for over 350 years. Originally a beer or ale house in the 1600s it was then owned by the three Halliwell sisters. There have been many guardians and changes over the following centuries until the present day… 

Inside you’ll find a cosy bar with comfy seats where all are welcome including muddy boots and four-legged friends.  Our locals are a friendly bunch and always ready for a chat, you can enjoy a board game with your friends or take time for yourself. We want you to enjoy a relaxing and comfortable stay with us, so if you need anything please ask. 

We’re all about sustainability and wherever possible use locally sourced seasonal produce and the freshest ingredients for our menus which are best described as fine British country fayre with a little flourish of French home cooking.

Our garden is the perfect spot for after work drinks. Handcrafted blankets are on hand if you’re feeling the chill and on blistering days you can borrow a boater and help yourself to some sun protection lotion. Whether you choose to dine in the restaurant, snack in the bar or graze alfresco, we like to think there’s a somewhere and something for everyone.
