The White Swan Hotel, Hunmanby

Still a proper pub, real log fire, no telly, no juke box although a selection of non-intrusive music is often playing, but usually drowned out by the lively chatter. Very quiet early on, becomes livelier but not crowded later. Head and shoulders above any other pub in this busy village, the staff & regulars are very welcoming and the place is spotless.
The only downside is "smoothflow" bitters.
If you eat here, you had better be hungry!

They do B&B too - I stayed here for a week, and would certainly stay there again if in the area.

The Bell, High Wycombe

A quick comment to clear things up!

After talking to a few people, and seeing the anonymous comment recently added, I think my previous entry on here has been mis-understood; When I refer to beer as "...a bit of dirty water with some sugar thrown in..." it is not intended as a comment on the quality of the beer in The Bell, but a light-hearted description of beer in general. It wasn't the brightest description I could have used, obviously!

My only grumble was, (and is), the pricing, in which case I believe that "Anonymous" DOES agree with my comments!

Despite the prices, it still remains the best pub in town in my opinion.

Apologies for any confusion caused / offence taken, as none was intended.

The Green Man, Flackwell Heath

The pub was very quiet during our visit, but I get the impression that it gets lively at times; some of the notices around the place would indicate that they cater for quite a young market. Bar staff - very up-front and friendly, and the beer is well kept.
