    Posted on 22nd of June 2007

    A family run rural pub/restaurant in the heart of the Knepp Castle Estate. The owner, Alan Vaughan, has been there for over 20 years, and has built up a reputation for serving quality local produce. Fish is collected Daily from Shoreham Harbour, Meat is supplied from local Farms breeding Limousin Cattle, Southdown Sheep, & Saddleback Pigs. Game is from the Castle estate where there are free roaming Fallow Deer, along with Pheasants and other game birds shot when in season. The pub Grows a range of vegetables, Herbs and Salads for use in the Restaurant, and this is subsidised by many local people bringing in their surplus crops from their gardens on a 'Barter'. What makes this pub so special is the dedication to supporting and serving local produce, where quality and service is more important than profit.
