Tucked away off the often-busy A25 adjacent to St Martin's church, the Stanhope enjoys a rural location and has been extensively renovated to a high standard. 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. Jazz & Blues jam sessions are held on the last Wednesday of the month while Quiz nights are held on the first and third Thursdays of the month. Street food shacks are provided during these organised events. Customers may use the church car park but please avoid using the allocated church spaces.
