Reopened on 23 March 2024 after refurbishment.

This warm traditional pub located in the middle of Romney Marsh is well worth a visit, especially in the summer months when you can enjoy the view from the large garden of St Mary the Virgin church opposite where Edith Nesbit author of The Railway Children is buried in the graveyard.

During the winter months, there is an open fire to accompany the excellent beer and good food.

The Star was built in the reign of Edward IV and Noel Coward used to live in an adjacent cottage, where it is said he wrote his first books and learnt music from the choir mistress.

Reopened Easter 2025 after short period of closure with the bar rotated by 90 degrees giving and intimate drinking area and a large performance space to the right of the main door.

Information for this venue is provided by the Ashford Folkestone & Romney Marsh Branch of CAMRA
