The Burrator Inn, Dousland

Excellent new menu and a comfortable interior. It would have been more confortable if we could have sat near the fire on a chilly autumn evening, but the area was taken up by the people running the pub. When we called in a few weeks ago, similarly, the main bar area of focus was taken up by the ... people running the pub.

Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but I think to think that a traditional pub in the country retains its comfort for the customers. Cosmopolitan 'clubiness' doesn't bode well in rural life. Despite this (and being freezing cold) - the menu was good.
