The Garden

The Squirrel sits in an enviable spot overlooking the village green, and its substantial beer garden is a genuine draw for families and friends alike, with a children’s play area keeping younger guests happily occupied whilst adults settle into the kind of unhurried afternoon or evening that country pubs do so well. On warmer days, the outdoor space feels like a natural extension of the pub’s welcoming character — the kind of place where you might easily linger over a pint after a walk through Penn Wood, or gather for a long Sunday lunch with a group. Inside, leather sofas and log fires create that essential sense of cosiness, and the kitchen takes its food seriously, from proper roasts to generously portioned classics, with thoughtful attention to dietary requirements. It’s the sort of unpretentious village local where the landlord knows how to make newcomers feel genuinely at home, and where good service and genuine hospitality matter far more than any polished veneer.
