Once they re-open their garden later this month, customers will be able to use blankets (washed daily) and sit underneath marquees on tables with hurricane lamps. The covered gazebo also has lighting and heaters.

The pair are also introducing a South African taster menu as well as a couple of changes to their normal menus.

"We have been working hard to have the pub, and our beautiful garden ready for everyone," said Peter and Val.

"There will be Pimms by the jug and glass and we have an extensive gin menu. There is also a safe children’s play area.

"One date to put in your diary is July 25 2021 as we will be celebrating Christmas in July as none of us had much of a Christmas last year.

"We can't wait to welcome back both old and new customers."
