Frog and Nightgown reopened a couple of years ago now and the Dragon has been refurbished and looks the part now. Both nice places!

The Frog and Nightgown is a tea room in the Day and a pub at night, I have not used it since it reopened, when I recently cycle by there was a lot of car parked outside.

That's an odd multi-use. Rather wondering what depths of debauchery it progresses to after the pub closes.

And does it involve a frog and a nightgown?

I know other pubs that are cafes during the day. Seems like a neat way to extend the opening hours despite the licensing regime, plus attract another clientele.

The problem for the pub it is situated on a very narrow country road, and unless you have been told about it, or found it online you would never know about it. years ago it was a really the sort of pub you would take someones eles's wife too..LOL. I know that some cycle groups now use it for elevens break. http://www.thefrogandnightgown.co.uk.

Cross over into Goff’s park (Signed for Gossop’s green) follow shared path alongside Railway line to A23(signed 223) turn left then right over toucan crossing and follow the 223 signs to Oatlands road and follow to Dower walk , then Left to Buckwood Drive then Right and follow to Gossop’s Drive then left and right into Rother Crescent follow to Trent Close (Signed) cross fields on track to Waterfields Garden road, then Right then Left onto Cycle path in front of houses then follow the bridleway through the woods heading North to the Rail Crossing, which runs behind the houses, turn North, and follow through wood, it then becomes Kilnwood lane, follow towards Faygate. At Cross roads go straight ahead into Wimlands lane follow to Crossroads, turn left into Wimlands road, go downhill past the frog and nightgown pub, before the railway level crossing turn right into bridleway and follow to owl castle farm, stay on the bridleway until the Rusper road, turn left and follow to Roundabout, cross over then follow Rusper road through Littlehaven to roundabout which is the Junction of 5 roads, take Kings road, follow B1295 to Horsham and Town centre.

You missed the bit where you have to wait 25 minutes to cross the a264!
