ROSE AND CROWN, ELHAM
The Rose and Crown is a 16th Century building which was extended and refronted in the Georgian Fashion. For many years the Inn served as a coaching stop on the way to Dover and the coast. It is said that the man upon whom Baroness Orczy modelled her fictional hero of the French Revolution, The Scarlet Pimpernel, used to stop and dine at the Rose and Crown while he waited for a fresh horse to carry him to the coast for one of his real-life dashes to France to rescue some doomed aristocrat from the guillotine.
The Rose and Crown offers a a range of fine Real Ales earning it's inclusion in the CAMRA Good Beer Guide. These ales are supplemented by an extensive bar and A La Carte menu served in the lounge bar or dining room.
The pub also has six en-suite guest bedrooms refurbished to an extremely high standard in the Stable Block.
There is a beautiful patio and lovely garden with views across the Elham Valley.
