A 16th-century free house in Old Oxted, Surrey.

The Crown began as a Tudor hall house in the 1500s and has welcomed locals and travellers on Old Oxted’s High Street for over 300 years.

Two characteristic bars with open fires, exposed beams and Victorian panelling, local cask ales from Surrey and Kent breweries, home-cooked food and a family beer garden with adventure playground and North Downs views.
