    Good

    I have used this pub for many years due to is convenient location by the M3 and A303, I have also sadly had many a beer after a funeral at the nearby crematorium. This is a convenient restaurant not a destination.

    Average

    The main entrance is accessed via poor pavement and the double doors need to be unlocked to allow access. In fairness the staff are generally there to help immediately. There is a rear exit by the parking which is undercover but up a slope with awkward doors for a wheelchair to access. Once inside there is a lot of space to move around but there are some areas on different levels.

    Poor

    The location has no obvious public transport but is well connected to M3, A303 and A30 to Winchester. There is a huge free carpark. However, there are just 2 blue badge park spaces and they are too small o deploy a WAV with a side lift
