The Nelson Traditional dog friendly pub with a sun trap beer garden, delicious food & a variety of cask ales ๐Ÿบ

Welcome to The Lord Nelson โ€“ also affectionately known as The Nelson, a country pub in the heart of the town,

This historic pub has undergone many changes during its long life and now with us, Tom and Josie, as the new landlords at the helm our vision it to return to its traditional roots as a good old fashioned traditional pub! That said we do plan to make some changes โ€“ a fresh new menu, wider

selection of wines and beers including guest beers from smaller independent breweries. Plus we want to bring back a pub quiz and some other events such as an acoustic open mic night. We also plan to slowly and sympathetically restore the fabric, furniture and fixtures of the building and are already making some initial changes which we hope you will like. Hopefully when all finished we will be the country pub in the heart of the town and community. In keeping with traditional pubs we have an open fires on through the colder months, perfect to finish that walk with the dog and relax with a pint of quality ale. The Pub has a small snug bar suitable for groups of 12-20, it does get booked very quickly so please donโ€™t delay. During the summer our Courtyard garden is a real sun trap offering a sheltered space to relax late into the evening. We thank you for your support through this period and look forward to getting to know customers old and new and share a pint or two along the way!
