This pub is run by the tallest man in the world, with the deepest voice in the world…read more Rodger. The Rodge. In fact, when you look back at the fall of the British empire, especially in India, much of the reason for its failure is due to it being called The Raj instead of The Rodge! Because, believe me, if The Rodge had been running things, Ghandi wouldn't have stood a chance! Also behind the bar is Rodge's lovely wife Caroline, and then of course you have your characters in the pub itself. Of worthy note, I would recommend a conversation with 'Mr Puss', the funniest man this side of the Rhicos. Regular live music events and a piano in the lounge. But if Rodge gets the guitar down from behind the bar and gives it to a punter, you know he's golden and you're in for a good night. Luckily, this pub is frequented by many talented musicians. Good beer garden out the back and a pool table and darts. An all-round genuine community pub seldom seen these days. All you need to be aware of is the Monday night club!

Fairly small and expensive pub just outside of the town centre. It has a beer garden which is a…read morenice feature on a warm summers night.

A great old pub which used to be a station! There are several real ales and Guinness on offer and…read moreyou can sit in one of the bars inside and watch football on one of the screens, or at wooden picniic tables outside on what used to be a platform! It's got a real countryside feel too with a large green area at the front beside the village, and the forest behind. I thought the people serving could have been friendlier and more welcoming which is why I give only 4 stars. Maybe they are with the locals but we were just passing through today.

Went for lunch here today - the first time we'd even been inside despite living only 5 miles away…read more We were amazed at how nice it was as most of the other pubs in the area are very poor and I certainly wouldn't recommend them (like The Colliers for instance which has disappointed us in several ways each time we've been there). However the Rolling Mill was very pleasant and welcoming, clean and comfortable. The landlord was friendly, as was the young woman who served at the tables in the dining room. Beers on offer include John Smith's, Brains Dark, Stella Artois, Strongbow and Carlsburg. There's a small area with a wide-screen television beside the bar, with windows over the front of the pub, and a dining room at the back overlooking a beer garden with nice views. (Another room contained a pool table, but we didn't go in there) The dining room was very comfortable, with photos of celebrities who've eaten there. The real surprise was the food; I can honestly say you get more for your money here as the meals are huge - but the prices are no more than in other pubs, indeed less expensive than many. There's a great choice, including several vegetarian dishes. We can personally recommend the veggie curry (£6.25) which comes with rice, or chips, jacket potato, or rice and chips. The evening menu is slightly different, and the Sunday menu varies as well. All in all, a great pub, and one we will be visiting again soon!

The room was very comfortable, and quite. Food was excellent, my complaints to the chef. The local people that came to the hotel for a drink were very friendly. And we had a lovely stay at this lovely old hotel. We enjoyed it so much that I intend to rebook for next years festive break. I would recommend the twelve knights to anyone wishing to stay for a night or two. Again many thanks to the manager, and staff, and we look forward to seeing you again, at the festive period.
