This chalet-style pub, which opened in August 2014, is situated in the picturesque hamlet of Barfrestone - just a five minute walk from 12C Saint Nicholas Church, the second oldest Norman church in the UK.

The pub has a comfortable, country kitchen feel to it with wooden tables and chairs, sideboard and a wood-burning stove.

From the corner bar, three real ales, including a mild from the Wantsum brewery, and Kent ciders, are served. There's also a good selection of wines. Coffee and tea are also available.

Cheese platters are served Friday-Sunday.

There is a small TV in the corner but this is only used to show major sporting events.

Outside there is a small patio and a lawned area with picnic benches.

Clubs wishing to hold meetings or other events are welcome to contact the pub to make arrangements. The pub can open earlier for groups, if pre-arranged, and may close a little earlier on quiet evenings.

The pub is a pleasant 1 1/2-mile walk from Shepherds Well railway station and walkers are welcome in the pub.Kent’s Public House Archive: Wrong Turn, Barfrestone
