Tucked away in the small village of Denton, this 17th century whitewashed inn is extremely popular with cyclists, thirsty walkers from the South Downs and French tourists fresh from the ferry at Newhaven. A rambling grapevine, wooden shutters and award-winning hanging baskets provide a colourful welcome to visitors who will not be disappointed with the inn’s cosy open fires, oak beams, hops and church pews. Apart from Denton residents, regular visitors to the pub include local cricket teams, quizzers and classic motorbike enthusiasts and dogs are always welcome. The pub boasts a large, secluded garden with decked area and visitors who cannot bear to leave can always stay at the cosy pub cottage next door.
