“Lovely, lovely, lovely... this English country pub” – from Brighton’s Gingerman group – “ticks every box: gorgeous garden with climbing frame for the kids, superb food, a fine wine list and great beer. Oh, and the staff couldn’t do enough for us, without being obsequious”. And more boxes: “sources local produce and wine as well”. “The perfect country pub”, agree its many fans: “can’t wait to go back”.
