Katie's Weekly Watering Hole

A FORMER lorry driver has taken over his old local hostelry and says he enjoys the challenges the pub industry brings. Rob Machin took over The Robin Hood, in Burton Road, Overseal, almost two months ago with the help of his daughter Jessica.

Mr Machin has managed pubs in Dorset in the past, but decided he wanted to be closer to home.

Having grown up in Burton Road, Mr Machin said when the pub came up for lease he 'went for it', because it's a pub he has always loved. The Robin Hood offers nine modern spacious rooms to let, at cheap rates including breakfast. Rooms range from family, single, double and twin and all are equipped with a television and mod cons.

The hostelry also offers a low cost menu ranging from pies, to fish and chips, to gammon steaks, which are all home cooked and produce is sourced locally. Sunday roasts are being introduced from September 1, costing just £5.95.

Steak specials are available on Monday evenings and on Wednesday evenings a curry club takes place.

On Thursdays and Saturdays a 'very popular' karaoke session takes places, a weekly meat raffle on a Friday, as well as occasional discos. A function room is also available, which caters for up to 80 people and buffets can be served.

The hostelry has a large television screen which showcaseson screen which showcases Freeview, a pool table, darts and dominoes. New players are needed for teams.

Weekly guest ales are available, the latest being Ringwood and outside there is a courtyard with a smoking area.

An early doors special is available from 5pm till 7pm Monday to Thursdays, and from noon until 2pm on Sundays, offering selected drinks for £2.30.

Mr Machin said: "Our customers are really nice and there is always a friendly welcoming atmosphere. We offer delicious meals and comfortable modern rooms.
"I haven't been here long, but I really want to boost the food and accommodation side to the pub. Everyone is welcome to come and try us.
