“A welcoming country pub located in the village of Hemyock on the Blackdown Hills serving delicious food lunchtime and evening”. If a meat-laden menu is your bag you will enjoy the pub’s Facebook page – and it will be enjoyed no doubt at a fundraiser for the Taunton Vale Harriers which the pub hosted in November 2024. Oddy – and we did look – there is no mention of the pub being taken over by a hunt on that same Facebook page, not even in their ‘upcoming events’ listing. The get-together, incidentally, is named a ‘pre-season lunch’, ironic given that the Taunton Vale Harriers hit the headlines a few weeks earlier when their hounds caused chaos in the Somerset village of Oake. Unwitting clients finding themselves sharing the Catherine Wheel’s snug with a bunch of enthusiastic hunters will at least get the opportunity to ask the harriers about their curious attitude to road safety…
