The Nettle Inn, Milltown

We were surprised to read the earlier reviews of this pub after we visited it in August 2008.

We stumbled upon it during a rambling drive through the surrounding country lanes and were tempted in by the pubs quaint and colourful exterior.

Inside the pub was a little dark but once the eyes adjusted to the light its real charm was revealed. Very warm and welcoming with log fires and a rustic appeal that made us want to loiter. Surprisingly large inside with several cosy small rooms and a larger restaurant area.

The 'Farmers' beer on draught was superb, and the food we had (steak and ale pie & home made burger with blue cheese) was first class. Traditional favourites but made with an individual twist that made them extra special.

For us a definite recommendation and a pub to be revisited the next time we get the chance.
