Tucked away off the often-busy A25 adjacent to St Martin's church, the Stanhope has been extensively renovated and aims to be 'a pub that serves food'. There is a separate garden and a barn available for private functions. In winter there is an open fireplace and walkers, and cyclists are welcome. Ales are from local and national breweries with two to three available during the week and four at weekends along with Charringtons cider. Monthly jazz & blues jam sessions are held. Customers may use the church car park but please avoid using the allocated church spaces.
