In a coaching inn built in 1748, this refined pub is a mile from the neolithic Rollright Stones and 5 miles from the 17th-century Chastleton House.

Whichford Pottery is fascinating; a peek upstairs at the workshop by the loo is a step back in time. The shop sells artisan gifts and jewellery. The eco café is excellent for freshly prepared lunches, juices and similar, hosted by wonderful staff. Very child friendly garden with games in an idyllic setting. Animal petting!
