On weekends, the property is busy with people in for tastings or leisurely lunches, and kids playing cricket on the lawn. The Harmans have fostered a real community vibe. It comes most easily on Sundays, when shareable wood-fired pizzas are on the menu. They also serve beer and cider for non-wine drinkers, and stock locally made ice-cream and sorbet for dessert.

The pub is affectionately known as “The Killy”. It’s been pouring pints and grilling steaks since the 1930s. Mark Volard took over in 2014, and later employed a chef from Cuba. Alongside pub classics such as chicken parma, calamari and steak sandwiches, the menu now offers Cuban-style pork spare ribs and Argentinian barbeque chicken. There’s also a vegetarian section, and vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free adjustments can be made.
