It was the Hotel California, but the new people decided to change the name. It's going rapidly downhill frown

Ronnie Harrison!! Now there was a Legend. They were also the last tenents of the The Pier Hotel leaving there around October'89 to move to the Castle which they finally got open around 2 years later by buying the place.

Ronnie always wanted to find out if his was the only pub on a roundabout?

Answers on a postcard if you please
