The pub and adjacent church form the heart of this rural village. Located high on the Weald, the spacious garden, which incorporates a large children’s play area, affords fine views towards the Ashdown Forest. Despite its apparent isolation Cowden railway station is but a mile away and there was a limited bus service connecting the village with Edenbridge and Tunbridge Wells. A warm welcome is assured from the jovial landlord. No food Sunday or Monday evenings. Folk Music on the second Sunday of each month. There is occasional live music at other times.
