Delicious roast dinner with all the trimmings. Sadly we were too full for dessert! Staff were all very friendly and the service was great including the banter. The team couldn’t do enough for us. Will be back very soon.

We have seen the sign and people’s comments about this Restaurant but have never got round to booking. So this time on our visit we decided to book. We were not disappointed lovely surroundings (as the weather was good we sat outside) and the Sunday roast was excellent. We will return on our next visit to the area. Thank you

We had an absolutely lovely evening. It was a tad chilly, so would advise wearing an extra layer. But other wise perfect. The food was prepared beautifully and tasted amazing. Excellent chef. Would highly recommend to all. And have.

We are new to the area and thought we’d try this out for Sunday Roast. We were not disappointed! From the moment we stepped in the welcome was warm and this continued until we left. The food was hot, tasty and plentiful. My husband managed pudding and enjoyed a large portion of sticky toffee pudding. As it is out of season it was very quiet and for a while the only diners. The booking agent offered us times of noon or 2pm so we assumed they were busy. We will definitely be back and are looking forward to trying more than the Sunday roast!

Felt the dining room has lost a little ambience with less low level comfy seating. Feels a bit school dinner hall layout now. Maybe just some large plants would help as I get you want to maximize dining tables. But food was lush so thank you.
