Description
This pub is not like any other that I know. It is a bit like someone's front room that happens to have a pub sign outside. Music is your choice from a collection of old records! King and Barnes, Fullers and Shepherd Neame beers served from small hatch area.
As befits the name, there are many 'frogs' in the bar. Beer garden with Morris men dancing [and drinking] on summer evenings. Very quiet location.....you can be the only people here at times.
How to get there
By car
The pub is about a mile from the A264, between Horsham and Crawley. Driving from Horsham to Crawley, turn left almost immediately after the Roffey roundabout.
Cycling
The short way...Take Rusper Road out of Horsham past Littlehaven station. Straight over
the northern bypass [A264] [caution....busy road]. Take the first
bridleway on the right [approx 0.2 miles / 0.3 km] and follow this past
a farm on the left [for 0.8 miles / 1.3 km]. At the road, turn left and
the pub is 0.4 miles / 0.6 km on the left
The long way...Cycle to Rusper by your favourite route! From here, take the Faygate road. Approx 0.5 miles / 0.8 km before Faygate turn right [signposted 'Wimlands']. At the end, turn left [good view!] and follow the road down a narrow steep hill. The pub is after the bottom of the hill on the right.
Suggested routes from here
This pub is so close to Horsham that I suggest you use it as a stopping point on the way home! I might see you there....

Love this pub. Very cosy with friendly locals! Our folk band Gumpf have played here several times. Next gig possibly Sat Aug 9th [check pub for details].

A lovely pub with lots of space for dogs and young children to run around in.

Civilised old-style country pub in a lovely location. Real people, well-kept beer, no nonsense. Too many frogs, but that's a small price to pay, and the garden is idyllic when the weather permits. If you're fussy and need all the most modern facilities, forget it. If you remember what good pubs used to be like 30-plus years ago, and miss them, this will be a real treat for you!
