What sets The Kings Arms apart, though, is the atmosphere. Our friendly staff create a cosy, welcoming vibe that’s hard to beat. Our stylish and comfortable lounge, with its woodburning fire, is a popular spot for catching up with friends and family over drinks, lunch and dinner. Or perhaps you prefer the light and airy bar, with its choice of tables and seating? Don’t worry; there’s another wood burner in the bar, too!
