Large public car park, half a dozen of blue badge parking bays, regularly patrolled by traffic wardens and disabled bays are very rarely abused. Blue badge holders park free

I have visited many times. All staff always helpful and pleasant. Excellent customer service from assistant manager (Nathan) at all times. Bar staff will always carry food/drink for you with no problem
Additional Information
This venue is perfectly accessible for wheelchair users and I have returned many times. An automatic front door would be a great improvement and some of the small wooden lane access ramps could do with replacing. The toilet needs maintenance
