    It's been a long time since we've been, but the old building hasn't lost any of it's character. The interiors are restored & kept to a very high standard. The Service was attentive without being over-bearing & we had a warm welcome. The Food was lovely, the Starters especially so - of which two of us shared four! And the main course were also lovely, all complimented by a decent cask ale to go with it. Thanks to the Barton Arms & keep up the good work..

    Great food, drink and service. Such a shame that the storm brought a power cut to the village before we got desert and coffee. Candles lit and open fire made for a lovely atmosphere.
