The Nicholls Arms

The Nicholls Arms is somewhere to bring your appetite, though the hearty portions arrive quickly, so guests don’t stay hungry for long.

You’ll feel somewhat spoilt for choice when glancing at the menu, which lists an array of traditional, home-cooked dishes. Deciding what to tuck into may be tricky, but the staff are always on-hand to help. Choose a warm chicken and mushroom pie, roast beef with all the trimmings or the wonderfully tender slow-cooked lamb.

The Nicholls Arms is a true country pub at heart. Housed in a Grade II listed building, there are no distractions so visitors can soak up the peaceful atmosphere found at this traditional watering hole. Find comfy chairs and settees, local artwork and copper pans hanging on the exposed stone walls, and china plates lining the wood-panelled wall. Oak beams and soft lighting add to the homely, cosy feel this pub exudes. Curl up next to the fi re with a newspaper and coffee, chat at the bar with a pint in hand or take a seat in the separate restaurant area – be prepared to leave feeling fully satisfied.

Owners Louize and Mark are always keen to please and ensure everyone is well looked after – nothing is too much trouble. There’s parking opposite the pub and dogs are welcome in the bar.
