What User likes about Motte And Bailey Pirton:
Today we had a delicious Sunday roast at the motte and bailey. at the arrival we were made to feel welcome and were sitting in a beautiful opposite of the pub next to the fire. the brat was all cooked home with a large part of cauliflower cheese served on the side and included in the price. the rioja was also great! thanks for a beautiful experience.

Lovely village pub spoilt by some pond life sitting at the bar whose only known word of the English Language began with the letter F.

Ran our of prosecco! I've never heard of pub running out of anything before.... a good night out despite this.
