Cask Ale

The Skimmington Castle started life as a farm 400 years ago. It became a pub in 1825 but in recent years has been more akin to a restaurant than pub, especially at weekends, meaning that drinkers may find all the tables taken by diners. Good food is available each weekday 12-3 and 5:30-9:30, 12-9:30 Saturday and 12-7:30 Sunday. The pub has a great location though, and on a sunny day, the beer garden is a wonderful place to enjoy a few pints, with or without a meal. The two guest beers change every few weeks. Inside there are a number of rooms, including one down a few steep steps (where families are permitted), all served by the one bar. This is very much a cosy pub with lots of atmosphere. Low ceilings and a real fire only help to enhance this.

Asset of Community Value

A multi-roomed pub of character, but the bar is situated in an extension to the original building and has new fittings. It is difficult to judge what the original room plan was and there are only a few fittings of age such as an old inglenook fireplace and a 1930s brick one. Not enough for RI. (MS/GB 05)
