Had an absolutely fantastic meal in the pub whilst staying on the camp site. Chicken burger was the best I've had (and I've had a lot!!). Chef was very accommodating. Highly recommended ??

We stayed on the caravan site it?s not clean they definitely have a problem with ants! We cut our stay in half! It?s not cheap to stay there and the facilities well done ask I think heath and safety have forgotten this place

If you like a free Costa coffee for every 30ltrs. It works out cheaper

We booked out the blacksmiths arms my grandparents 50th wedding anniversary. We don?t live locally so had never visited the pub before. I inquired locally with a few pubs but that blacksmiths stood out due to brilliant communication and they couldn?t do enough to help. On the day of the wedding anniversary celebration they couldn?t do enough to make it a special day for my grandparents. They had decorated the pub with banners and balloons. The roast was lovely, all 50 meals came out hot at the same time and everyone was really impressed. The service was also brilliant. There was a small hiccup with a children?s meal, and they very quickly resolved this with no problems. Genuinely can?t fault our experience and would recommend to anyone looking for somewhere to host an event.

Decent selection of groceries, a bit over priced

We visited here on a sunny Friday evening. Initially just for a drink but then decided to see if there was availability to eat. We sat outside in the sunshine to start but the garden was a little unkempt and the benches had definitely seen better days. We headed inside when it turned a bit chilly and asked about food, told it was busy but they could accommodate us although their pre booked tables would take priority which us as we were also paying customers. A table of six arrived so we were told the bar lady would take their orders then come to us. We were told there were no starters and no pies available?! No idea early on q Friday evening. We waited 25 minutes for our order to be taken but nobody arrived so we finished our drinks and left. This is the second time I have given the Blacksmiths a chance after poor service and we won't be back for a third time.

Shop prices are shockingly expensive. Won't be using again, any saving on fuel is soon cancelled out by the rest of the prices.

Called last minute for a table of 6 and the women on the phone accommodated us straight away. Really good selection of meats ( beef, chicken, gammon, lamb shank, belly pork, veggie options as well ). Food was exceptional I don?t think I?ll ever cook Sunday roast again now that I?ve been here. I have to say I?m really impressed we had table service constantly with a waitress attending to us whilst the chef came in and out all day checking on ourselves and everyone else! Thank you so much , we?ll see you next week ?

Came to the Blacksmiths Arms in February with family, thoroughly enjoyed my meal and so did everyone else. All staff/ waiters were very polite. Would happily recommend to anyone.
