This 15th century pub has been very well renovated and it is now a successful mix of old and modern. The front is very attractive being covered in hanging baskets. Inside wooden floors, good solid tables (found throughout) and subdued lighting help to create a warm atmosphere. There is a single bar but, with four separate areas coming off it, there are quiet parts to be found. Both the front and rear areas have wood panelling and a separate room, 'Narnia', which can be booked for functions, can be reached via the back left corner of the bar. Outside there is a very good patio garden with some 'beach huts' with heaters at the top. Originally a Courage pub, it was bought by Young's in 1989, changing its name from the Old House at Home to the Old House in March 2013 and became a Punch pub in 2021. Dorking Brewery took over the lease in October 2023 and changed the name back after a refurbishment in late spring 2024. Five Dorking beers are sold and there are plans for another line which will have a guest from another local brewery.
