Drove past this place looking for somewhere to nice to eat as we're on our honeymoon. Popped in for a cream tea and booked for that everything as we liked the menu. Lady on that afternoon told us to ask for a booth if we did book as a little more special. Wow what a beautiful room we dined in, server was lovely and food exceptional. We didn't think prices were too bad compared to other menues we'd looked at. We both had three courses and the bill with drinks was £85.20, definitely worth a visit.

We rang ahead to make sure it was accessible as my mum is in a wheelchair and they were very helpful and responsive. Re access – there is stairs free access to the hotel and restaurant, and a disabled toilet available to use. My mum was able to sit at the table comfortably in her wheelchair which was handy too, as the restaurant chairs don't have armrests. The food was lovely, delicious with very generous portions and the service was excellent. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area!

Shocking. Arrived at 14:50, served drinks, given menu, went to order at 15:00 and kitchen closed. Not told this when they were happy to serve us drinks and give us menus, knowing full well we wanted food. Shocking service.

Excellent atmosphere and service. Perhaps portion sizes a little on the small side, limited choice of vegetables (no peas!) and beef was clearly of the Wilkinson sword variety, either bought that way or cooked and frozen in house. Then again for £20pp I perhaps shouldn't be so fussy!

A nice place to eat, as long as your not sitting next to an annoying loud person..felt sorry for his family..all you could hear was his mouth.. Anyway..onto the food.. has lamb..£25..! Very small portion.. Was nice but small.. Wine was good, made me forget the person next to me! Update..sticky toffee pudding was better than the lamb! 28th May.
