CHARDSTOCK VILLAGE is a village located on the eastern border of Devon, England off the A358 road between Chard and Axminster. The River Kit runs through the village. The attractive village is surrounded by farmland and woodland. The soil is chalk and clay in parts. The village church of Saint Andrew formerly consisting only of a chancel and nave was rebuilt and enlarged in 1864.

The George Inn is a beautiful 15 th century pub set in the heart of picturesque Chardstock, right on the Devon , Dorset and Somerset borders. It was originally a Church or Parish house where people would gather after services to taste the beer brewed by two church nominated wardens. All the pastry dainties for the religious feast days were prepared in our kitchen and they have been celebrating anything they can get away with here ever since! In fact some of the customers over the years have loved the pub so much that they are still hanging around and we have several ghosts.
Evidence for the age of the building can be seen in the graffiti in the snug and lounge bar windows where the names and initials can be traced back through many generations of local families. The pub still maintains many original features such as old oak and linen fold panelling. The linen fold in the Lounge Bar is said to be one of the finest examples in the country and was in a ships cabin and a church before it arrived at the George Inn and it has been here for several hundred years!
