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 Sataic 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 the chef of the partnership and serves traditional, wholesome, well cooked and homemade food. All ingredients are locally sourced where possible and in some cases provided by locals and regulars.

Only the Best
Fresh Ingredients, Tasty Meals
The specials menu changes regularly and with the seasons. All items are created by Kath and the Anvil Chef team.
We have a homemade Puddings menu as well which changes weekly with ever-changing desserts depending upon the season and availability of ingredients.
Our Head Chef is a pastry genius and her cakes are second to none! Which is why we make celebration cakes for all
