We're in the Michelin Guide

We couldn’t be prouder to be featured in the Michelin Guide, for two consecutive years, in 2022 and 2023. Here’s what they say about the Horse & Groom…
 
“Until 1812, this whitewashed pub was the village blacksmiths. Its cosy, characterful bar oozes charm, while the elegant restaurant boasts a terrific collection of early 20th century artwork. Assured, modern dishes range from pub classics to more creative combinations. Well-appointed bedrooms complete the picture.”
