Our Story
Welcome To The Anvil Inn
The Anvil Inn….a traditional country pub serving good quality homemade food, homemade desserts, great real ales and a warm friendly welcome. We have a small 6 pitch secluded site for caravans and motorhomes. We also offer accommodation in our 3 bed Willoughby Villa Static Caravan.
We serve three ever changing real ales sourced all over the country but focusing on local breweries. Landlord Karl takes great pride in his real ales and always ensure a variety and varying strengths from 3.6% up to 5% plus!
Landlady Kath is in charge of our catering and offers traditional, wholesome, well cooked and homemade food along with her skilled team of chefs. All ingredients are locally sourced where possible and in some cases provided by locals and regulars.
