Sorry for the lack of posts. We've still been out on walks but Kiki is proving slightly harder to train than we first imagined and has been staying on the long lead as a result. This means all my time is taken up trying to control her rather than being able to photograph the walk. We'll get there eventually, I hope.
On a different note, Sunday was a sad day for us. We'd attempted to go to the Well House for a drink the previous weekend only to find it closed for refurbishment. About time too you may say, it was certainly looking tired in some areas. We were wondering if they could tidy the place up without losing any of the charm.
Alarm bells started ringing as we walked through the garden, staff were wearing uniforms. The tables in the conservatory had place settings with wine glasses laid, something was clearly up. On entering the bar it all became clear. The pub has been taken and is now far more food orientated.
Sadly, the pint of Shere Drop I tried in the Well was bland and lacking in life, they clearly used a sparkler on the pump. Prices have also increased but I imagine this was inevitable following any refurbishment.
On the plus side it still welcomes dogs and both girls were pleased to be offered a biscuit. We shall, no doubt, give it another go but I can see us using the White Hart far more in the future.
