 The Packhorse

A member of the Chestnut collection of pubs, inns and restaurants. A village green, a thriving local shop, a meandering river and an award winning local - Moulton really is the quintessential rural idyll.

A stroll away from the medieval bridge that inspired its name and a short trot from all that Newmarket has to offer.
