Ascot pub/mancave regarded as one of the best in the UK

They might look like the inside of your local boozer or countryside pub but these incredible miniature bars have all been built in back garden sheds across the UK.

One of the final three is the Rob Inn, in Ascot.

The ‘boozer’ has a rustic country pub vibe with wooden panels, brickwork and a wood burner next to its fully-stocked bar.

The Thames Valley shed will be up against the Shaun of the Dead-inspired Winchester, in Eastleigh, Hampshire, which features a beautifully ornate bar, poker table and dart board.

The third finalist is the patriotic Adelaide, which is based in South Benfleet, Essex, which looks like a stereotypical British pub.

It boasts a big screen and original furniture from closed-down pubs.

The brilliant backyard boozers will now go head-to-head to be crowned the winner of this year's national contest on August 17.

Robin Arkwright, the ‘landlord’ of the Rob Inn, said: "After having built a small bar in there a few years ago, we decided to knock the wall through, with the help of my wonderful neighbour, to gain a little more space.

"I started the build in the summer last year and finished it in April.

"The materials are a mixture of reclaimed timbers, along with new timbers that I have aged back to achieve that rustic feel.

"I always wanted the bar to be brick, but the walls were breeze block, so a bit of creativity was needed.

"I battened it all out and created the brick from MDF with each brick individually finished and hand painted. A labour of love, but it is always a talking point.

"Since completion, and during the build we have had many great nights with family, friends and neighbours, and we look forward to many more.

"I always struggled with a name, and then one morning standing in the garden, a robin landed just metres from my feet.

"It was always my late dad's favourite bird, and some say a 'sign of loved ones coming to visit'.

"And with my name being Rob, it was sorted - The "Rob-Inn" was born."

It is believed more than two million back garden pubs are now in operation in Britain after their popularity exploded during the coronavirus pandemic.

The winning of the 2024 edition of the competition will be announced on August 17.
