I discovered The Plough a year ago and it felt like stepping back in time. The low ceilings, dim lighting, stone floor, and wooden beams transported me to another era. The building itself dates back to the 1700s, so it's not surprising. The beer selection is all real ale and is excellently maintained. I absolutely adore this place. Terry, the landlord, is a fantastic guy and always ready for a friendly conversation. I can't recommend this place enough.
Someone once told me that strangers are just friends you haven't met yet. I think this would be a perfect motto for this pub. We arrived at the door and felt genuinely welcomed. We've returned every week since (takeaway during 2020 lockdown). You'll be welcomed whether you're a local, a visitor, a newcomer, a dog, or have muddy boots! Oh yeah... and they sell drinks and baguettes, cash only.
The Plough is a proper English country pub. It's all about the pub atmosphere, with good beer, and friendly people. It's refreshing to find a pub that isn't food led. There are some lovely walks directly from the pub, which make it a perfect place to start and finish a walk with some much deserved refreshments. The garden at the back has a backdrop of fields, and is dog friendly.
I can't visit this pub enough. The beer is outstanding, as are the baguettes (I suggest trying the coronation chicken). There are no distracting elements found in many pubs nowadays. It's just a delight to sit there. The atmosphere is friendly and laid-back. People actually engage in conversation with you, it's amazing!
