Superbly designed modern Heron and Brearley business park pub also now near a housing estate. Very spacious, with a large conservatory transformed into a light-filled dining space, off a comfortable lounge with Sports TVs and a quieter raised area. This pub has a regular changing menu supplemented by daily specials, well presented to a high standard. There are occasional live music events. Okells ales are also available here in this relaxed atmosphere. The garden areas to the rear are substantial with play areas for young families and a spacious terrace for dining al fresco. In the interior bar there is a coal effect fireplace and a stove. Decoration includes a tasteful series of black and white photographs detailing Manx scenes throughout the island. Very much a hidden gem, unknown to many on island, by way of its location being a couple of miles out from Douglas centre, the Horse & Plough also has a Kids' Club and is very family friendly. However due to the excellent design of the venue, the pub is capable of hosting diners, drinkers and younger folk in the same venue all unobtrusively at the same time.
