The Black Swan

Summary

This Victorian inn has long been run by the Dinnes family, and the interior is “full of interesting nooks and crannies and curios”, with “a truly nostalgic, traditional feel as opposed to the sham nostalgia so often fabricated”. It makes “an excellent place for a delicious Sunday lunch”, and one reporter this year “particularly appreciated the attention paid to vegetables”. Further boon: it’s “good value if you stay overnight” (the most adventurous option being to glamp in a yurt in their own slice of forest by the river).
