'The Vineyard' is a 5 star hotel on the edge of the village that has a spa and restaurant. The restaurant previously held two Michelin stars, although these were removed when Executive Chef John Campbell left for Dorchester's Coworth Park. Robby Jenks is now Head Chef. The Vineyard was described as "a palace of naffness" by the late restaurant critic Michael Winner. The village has a pub The Rising Sun, a free house serving ales from the region. It is in the CAMRA Good Beer Guide 2017. A second pub was originally called the Nags Head but the name was changed to the Lord Lyon after a racehorse, leased by local landowner Richard Sutton that in 1866 won both the 2000 Guineas and Epsom Derby. The pub is tied to Arkell's Brewery who put the building up for sale in late 2015 and closed the pub in January 2016. ==Nearby places==
