Harden's survey result
Summary
A “great” 15th-century pub (with four rooms set atop the nuttery in the garden) that’s situated in the heart of the Weald, and just a short stroll from Sissinghurst Castle, the old home of Virginia Woolf’s beloved, Vita Sackville-West, and whose gardens are run by the National Trust. “They always have good beer on” and, having extended over the years, there are five different dining areas in which to enjoy the “typical” but very sound gastropub fare, much sourced from the local area.
Summary
This “delightful country pub” has a characterful fifteenth-century setting and five modern bedrooms in a converted nuttery above the gardens; it won praise this year for its “interesting and well-executed” locally sourced cuisine – served across five different dining areas – and even one reporter who had an off-visit rated it “very good”.
Summary
This “lovely traditional Kentish pub” – timber-framed and full of nooks and crannies that include five dining areas – offers “imaginative dishes together with classics” on a menu that’s “a cut above good pub food”. “We love taking visitors there to impress”.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).

The Three Chimneys Restaurant Diner Reviews
"Very nice old pub serving good gastropub style food at reasonable prices. Dishes are well conceived and executed "
"A wonderful characterful village pub- unpretentious: until you meet the food, which is exceptional. The simple things, done exquisitely. My homemade pate and homemade chutney couldn't be bettered. Nothing complicated - everything excellent"
