What User doesn't like about The Swan:
Stopped in on way back from badminton horse trials m. This a very friendly family pub that catered for children and dogs. The bar maid brought my dog a bowl of water to the table. Food wise you can’t wrong value for money I had sausage in a baguette the sausage alone was a foot long and an inch thick very scrumpy View all feedback. What User likes about The Swan:
The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. Although the pub had stopped serving food, the landlady went out of her way to cook us a meal, despite being the only one working at the time! View all feedback.
