We went to The George for lunch however due to lack of vegan/vegetarian choice on menu and the fact selling real fur bobble hats we decided to take our custom to The ship Inn.The Ship Inn came to our rescue, the waitress was friendly and very good at her job, the vegetarian/vegan choice was good and a fair price. I really can not fault the service or the meal, good value for money.I will be back .Thank you The Ship for saving the day.

The food was tasty but quite expensive. I would have liked an alternative to Brioche for the burgers.

We came here for dinner on Friday evening. The atmosphere, service, menu choice and food was excellent. My partner ordered a steak medium well done which was overdone so weâd suggest ordering slightly under what you usually like (I blame him not the pub ). Camembert and risotto was delightful. Weâd definitely return.

During the last week, I have eaten here twice: it now has become my favourite eatery in the area. On a weekday, I enjoyed the Hunters chicken with mushroom sauce, with a large party of ladies. Despite the numbers, the service was efficient & friendly, with excellent attention to the customers. Today I enjoyed their excellent Sunday lunch, beautifully cooked & presented. This will be the venue for entertaining guests in the future.

Ended up here on a trip through the forest with visitors. Had a fantastic lunch and great beer and very friendly staff. My vegetarian partner said her food was clearly cooked by someone who loved food and my burger was fantastic. Shared breads could have had a little more bread for the amount of dips but everything was very tasty.

Quick and helpful service, as always in our experience. We chose to have main course and pudding and were happy to wait for the food to be prepared. As usual, it was well presented and came with separate seasonal vegetables alongside, included with the chosen items. A comfortable table, with NO music in the dining area (there's quiet music in the bar-service area, for those who enjoy it -- we don't).This is our chosen venue for eating out in this area.

A very well presented pub, more of a restaurant really. Great parking brings you into the Cartwheel, which is very well decorated throughout. We had a carafe of white wine- nice idea. Then three courses of very well cooked locally sourced food. Lovely evening with great service.Thank you for your glowing review.We have only been open for 6 months following an extensive renovation. We are proud of how it has lightened up the space without losing the feel of a country Inn.Our food is as locally sourced as possible and along with the passion of our chefs it tells with the quality on he plate. I must not forget our attentive waiting staff who often go the extra mile to ensure great customer satisfaction.Hope to see you again in the near future.The Cartwheel Team
