This wine-focused pub from Sam Maynard (ex-Hotel du Vin) with three boutique bedrooms, in prime English wine country on the Kent-Sussex border a 50-minute train ride from London, opens on May 10. The 30-cover restaurant offers local seasonal dishes alongside a list of 80 English wines – possibly the biggest selection readily available.

* Based on a three course dinner, half a bottle of wine, coffee, cover charge, service and VAT.

In a cute market town in prime English wine country on the Kent-Sussex border, this wine-focused pub from Sam Maynard (ex-Hotel du Vin) opened three boutique bedrooms in 2023. The 30-cover restaurant offers local seasonal dishes from chef Adam Sear alongside a list of 80 English wines (and there’s also a more conventional bar menu). Too little feedback for a rating as yet, but such as we have is ‘all good’.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
