On a tiny narrow lane we found The Sun Inn. Looking beautifully rustic with it's thatched roof, we found it to be warm and cosy inside and without any pretensions. Old-fashioned and friendly with a good number of real ales on the pumps and some ciders too.
We experienced lovely hospitality from the landlady and once we’d ordering some substantial lunch from a small menu of big pies, we settled down in one of the three seating areas (it was nice to have it to ourselves) with the paper, and relaxed.
After assembling a wide collection of condiments, and enjoying a giant cup of tea and a pint of 'Gobblers', our food arrived. My stilton, peppered mushroom and onion pie was ultimate comfort food, and served with delicious gravy and the homemade cottage pie was also huge, and very much enjoyed by D, who felt the cabbage was also very tasty.
A lovely discovery. We would have happily whiled away an afternoon there. Well worth a visit should you be near Junction 16 of the M1 and very much recommended by ourselves as well as CAMRA.
