Dating from 1740s the pub was acquired by Adnams in 1994 and respectfully renovated by them. Family run, it offers a great selection of the brewery's own beers, plus their seasonal offerings and two or more changing guests. Originally two buildings, they have been combined to give a number of separate drinking areas over two floors, including a downstairs snug. To the rear is a suntrap garden next to the mound of the long-gone castle. Excellent food served every session, including a wide selection of specials and a Sunday Roast & Carvery.

The Castle Inn's long-standing licensee left in November 2022. It reopened in January 2023 with new tenants who also run the Alex and the Portland.
