Visited 12th May 2012.
The plan was to make 'The Bishop Vesey' our last 'spoons of the day before heading off to the hotel. We were definitely ready for a rest! As I was taking the photo of Mrs S. the sign she was leaning on moved on its springs and almost pitched her over. A friendly wag immediately suggested she should pop along to the AA after leaving the pub. I ordered a pint of Backyard Brewhouse Blonde and Mrs S. had a cup of tea. We took our drinks out the back intending to enjoy the sunshine again but ended up sitting in the shade where we quickly got cold so traipsed back inside and then went upstairs. Upstairs we felt as though we were sitting in a small barn, it was light and airy, a contrast to the darker atmosphere downstairs. By now we were starting to get a bit peckish so decided it was time to head for the hotel where we going to have afternoon tea.
The hotel was only a couple of miles away and it wasn't long before we were sat in the bar enjoying our tea and cake. The hotel was fine and after a nap we were ready for dinner but didn't fancy anything on the hotel menu, hmm where should we eat. If you're guessing a 'spoons then you're wrong although we did end up driving back to 'The Bishop Vesey'. We had noticed earlier that across the road there was a Harvester and the lure of free refills and the salad cart tipped the scales. Come on Tim, free refills please.
