I'll remember next time, when a local says to avoid somewhere, to listen! We were with the wedding party, and were advised by locals on more than one occasion to avoid this pub, in just a few hours! We joined the others thinking it can't be that bad...oh how wrong were we! We had travelled from South West Wales that day, had all showered that morning so didn't smell, contrary to what the owners have said... we were looking forward to a good pub meal before the big day the following day. We were greeted with this dark, dingy pub and the customer service echoed this! I have worked in retail and hospitality and never seen anything like it. Our 2 children were with us, our youngest is 8 months old and yes, requires a pram, we had no other paraphernalia with us, thank you. My 3 year old was very weary of the massive dog, especially as it didn't move and nobody cared less, (we own 3 dogs so he's not afraid and it's not welcoming!) If he spoke, it was only because of this. He certainly didn't scream or make a fuss! So I'm really not sure where the comment about the children was being fabricated from, the children with us were all impeccably behaved. There was no running around or screaming, never invent and publish lies about our children. The fact only fish was available...just ridiculous. For a start...fish is a high allergen, there should ALWAYS be an alternative for that reason. Check with the Food Standards Agency. We live in a very small village ourselves, we only visit small establishments, none with such stupidly limited menus and we have never received such a rude welcome, even with large parties! My friend did try to book but was unable to. If you had been apologetic and had said you simply couldn't feed us all, we would have understood and forgotten about it. We felt such an inconvenience, and I personally don't eat fish (although would have happily just had chips if it wasn't for the way my friends were being spoken to by the woman behind the bar!) and we made the decision to leave. I did not want to spend a penny of our money here. Or use your rest rooms, I'm not aware of anybody that did! We then went elsewhere, completely unannounced where we had stunning food and we were made to feel so welcome, even our 'screaming' children, who were once again amazingly behaved! Maybe we caught you on a bad day, however, being polite doesn't cost a thing. Looking at your reviews, however, this was not a one off. I have never given a small business a bad rating but I have to make exception. What an awful experience!

First class food and service We popped into The Plough for a drink while on a country walk and it didn’t disappoint. A wonderfully traditional pub with great character. A Fire place in one room, a baby grand piano in another and the décor interesting. We spent an entertaining couple of hours having drinks and chatting with the friendly landlord, Chris. We had such a lovely time that we returned the next day for Sunday lunch. The food was all freshly cooked and to die for. I’ve been to several Michelin Starred restaurants and this lunch was up there! We can’t recommend this place enough. Thank you so much Rosemary and Chris Very for making our weekend. Warm regards Stewart

Had lunch and a few pints here while staying at Eaton Manor. The food was delicious and plentiful and the setting can only be described as a proper pub. The owners were helpful and had good craic. Plus it's dog friendly. If we ever go back to that neck of the woods we will definitely return.

What a lovely little pub. Home cooked food and large portions. Who minds waiting a little longer for something home cooked and tasty. Lovely owners who took the time to talk to us on what had been a very busy lunch period. Limited menu at the time but still plenty to chose from. No kids menu as such but plenty offered children friendly or happy to make a smaller portion of an adults choice. Dog friendly eating area and treats offered which always wins our Labrador over. Only 2 ales when we visited but decent local ales so that was not a problem.

Some good ales on tap, plenty of space between 3 seperate drinking areas as well as a restaurant area. Apparently the ladies toilets are ornate :)
