The Chequered Skipper

The Chequered Skipper is situated in the village of Ashton near Oundle. It’s a quintessentially English setting next to the village green and surrounded by pretty thatched cottages. The pub itself is a thatched building with an interior that fuses modern decor and original features – there’s plenty of character here.

Choose to dine in the restaurant or bar or head outside. In the summer months, you can enjoy a pint and something to eat on the green and in the colder months, you can shelter in the heated and covered dining area.

There’s a wide selection of dishes on the menu, much of which is made from locally sourced fresh produce. And if you just fancy a drink, there’s plenty of options including some English wines and CAMRA-recommended beer,
