Restaurant at Lastingham Grange in Ryedale

Had a lovely afternoon tea , staff very polite and couldn't do enough for you , The Grange is very quaint and very well kept , the gardens looked great but unfortunately the weather wasn't its best .

Had a lovely afternoon tea in beautiful surroundings. The staff were very attentive & friendly. Would definitely recommend

Relaxed and very friendly staff made us feel instantly comfortable. The warm garden was very restful for afternoon tea. Tasty sandwiches and the orange scones are something we will be trying at home.

Just enjoyed a really good lunch in the beautiful garden at Lastingham grange. Highly recommend. Very peaceful and relaxing . Good service. Friendly -& dogs welcome.

We came here with friends for a Saturday lunch & as it was a sunny warm day, we sat on the terrace overlooking the gardens. Fabulous food, silver service, very pleasant staff in traditional surroundings. We were well cared for & will return soon

Very elegant, flawless service, superb food with lovely grounds to explore. Thank you Bertie and Tom.

Called in on spec on a hot day for a light mid-week lunch and were thrilled to find what a superb place this is. It was busy but spacing was good, hygiene was efficient. We were given such a warm and highly professional welcome by the two brothers who own and run it. They apologised we may have to wait (no problem for us - the surroundings are gorgeous) but meanwhile brought us a large carafe of iced water and dealt with our drinks order. Then the menu! A treat! Fabulous fresh, beautifully prepared and presented delicious food with excellent service. My beef sandwich was the best ever! Diddy pots of homemade chutney and mayonnaise were a delight. Coffee was superb. Thank you for a great experience. Cannot recommend it highly enough. We will be booking a couple of nights with you for R&R before too long.

My husband and I had a lovely afternoon tea here yesterday for my birthday with our one year old son and dog. The tea included lovely sandwiches and cakes and delicious fresh scones with jam and cream. We sat in the stunningly beautiful garden (after a walk across the nearby Spaunton Moor which is also stunning). The service was impeccable and the manager was particularly kind and welcoming to our son and dog, providing milk and a high chair for our son and dog treats for our dog. They also have good baby change facilities. Highly recommended. Thank you for a lovely afternoon.

Fantastic country house hotel ambience. Lovely atmosphere, very good food perhaps a bit pricey but who cares

Celebrating a special occasion with friends - we decided to try somewhere new. We were not disappointed this restaurant ticked all the boxes. The menu was varied and featured local produce, all our choices were cooked to perfection. It was lovely to have pre-dinner drinks in the sitting room and return there for after dinner coffee. We had a lovely evening and will return soon. Highly recommended.

We have a B&B in Wrelton about 5 miles away and will recommend to our guests

A treat for my friend’s birthday. The whole experience was joyful and a lasting memory. Can’t wait to go back.

Used the restaurant twice in the evening while staying at the Grange. Excellent food and service. Nice location and environment. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Had an excellent meal at Lastingham Grange. The food was excellent and the service was friendly. The ambience is typical "comfortable" country hotel. Excellent value and we had a thoroughly enjoyable evening

Lastingham Grange is Quaint with a capital Q. All the food is home baked/prepared and makes all the difference. Service is polite and efficient and the surroundings are delightful. If you're looking for a refined, relaxed afternoon tea experience then this is the place.

We came here for Sunday lunch with friends last year and enjoyed it so much that we decided to go for my husband's birthday treat and we were not disappointed. The weather was perfect so after a warm welcome we enjoyed a pre-lunch drink on the terrace, admiring the roses, while we chose from the menu. £32 for 5 courses was superb value. My hot smoked salmon starter with avocado, quail eggs and lemon dressing was generous and very tasty and my husband really enjoyed his home-smoked duck breast with boozy sultanas. The tomato soup was home-made and just right, and my raspberry sorbet cleansed my palate. Our roast beef and roast lamb were both very tender, bought from the local butcher in Kirkbymoorside I was told, and there was a generous selection of vegetables. We were both offered extra Yorkshire puddings but declined since we wanted a dessert! The gooseberry fool wasn't too sweet and my husband was very pleased to find fruit salad on the menu, which came with cream or ice cream (various flavours). On top of all this we were then offered a selection of the excellent cheeseboard too! The wine list is good and I enjoyed a dessert wine from a choice of 5 or 6. Finally we had coffee back on the terrace. Throughout our meal the service was exemplary - prompt without being over-attentive. A perfect meal. I'm planning to return to try afternoon tea next!

We were on holiday near Bridlington and had friends living near Harrogate. I put a request through Google for a country house hotel providing lunch somewhere halfway, where we could meet in a comfortable environment. We booked this hotel for lunch, being attracted by their excellent web site and the beauty of their situation. We were not disappointed, a warm welcome, wonderful food, especially my husbands gammon dish and the fish chosen by the rest of us, beautifully served. Sweets equally delicious and coffee served in the lounge. Nothing could have been better. We arrived within 10 minutes of each other, in pouring rain, by 3pm we were sitting in a beautiful sunny garden. Thank you to all the staff.

My son and I were on a walk and stopped here for morning coffee. We also treated ourselves to a slice of chocolate cake each. The weather was lovely so we had our coffee and cake in the garden. The service was excellent and the garden and grange are wonderful. A truly memorable experience

We had lunch at this charmingly old fashioned hotel restaurant. The comfortable lounge reminds one of days gone bye. The lunch menu provides an excellent choice of light dishes and sandwiches together with interesting starters and mains. The wine list is excellent, for me certainly the best locally. The service is welcoming and efficient. The dining room is not large, but comfortable and, unlike many restaurants that squeeze their guests on to tiny tables, the table was a good size for two. The atmosphere was calm and pleasant. The food was traditional and none the worse for that. It was well prepared and presented. For me one of the bonuses was that the restaurant serves great custard, unlike many these days. I really enjoyed lunch here, unfortunately the weather was not good during our visit so we were not able to enjoy the terrace and garden. I will certainly return and recommend this to those who are seeking good food in a great setting.

Very busy and had to book but met friends here for 60th birthday. Interesting Church in the village with Saxon croft.

We shared a lovely meal with friends for my husband's birthday and the food and service were very good. This is our first time whilst being in the Rosedale area but would return.

Due to several recommendations we booked Sunday lunch at the Grange. It was so delightful that we booked again for the next Sunday. As the weather was gorgeous, we got a table in the very well-kept garden. Again the food and service were excellent and the wine list impressive. All good things come in threes - so we decided to have our farewell dinner at the Grange, too. As a farewell gift we got a little box with truffels. That’s what I call personal attention. Thanks again to the Wood family and their team.

Es war genauso schön wie letztes Jahr, der Garten fantastisch bepflanzt und schön ruhig, der Service absolut perfekt, freundlich, herzlich aber doch englisch zurückhaltend. Wir haben es wieder sehr genossen hier zu sein.

Excellent service including a great welcome with attentive and friendly staff throughout our visit. Although the menu could not be described as innovative there was a good choice for lunch and all the food was well prepared and presented, and very tasty. It was delightful to sit out in the garden with coffee after the meal and walk through the beautiful grounds. We really appreciated the unexpected gift of chocolates we were given at the end of the meal as we were celebrating our wedding anniversary. There is a real sense that satisfying guests' wishes are paramount at this restaurant.

From booking to leaving perfect. Surroundings superb, lovely greeting by staff, overall excellent service. We had afternoon tea on the terrace. The meal was very well presented and a lovely selection of sandwiches and cakes, beautiful ingredients and flavours. Also it was lovely to have the freshly baked scones all accompanied by plentiful tea and coffee . Our thanks to all concerned.

We were doing a circular walk from hutton le hole to lastingham and back and just as we left the moor we came across this place. we wondered if it was too posh and expensive for us walkers but no it welcomed us with open arms and was extremely moderately priced - less than many pubs. we sat in the incredible garden and ordered a small crab salad and crab sandwich (neither on the menu. they had fresh crab for a more elaborate dish but we wanted something plain and they were happy to oblige). it was fresh local crab and the salad came with 2 small eggs too (quali?) . also lovely fresh interesting rolls and butter and home made chutney and a fabulous home made coleslaw. with 2 halves of beer and a cider the total sum was 16 pounds!! unbelievable. we wished they had charged more. lovely people too. the grounds go on for ever - we strolled for about 10 minutes. What a find. Go there. NOW!

On our way to Lastingham to start a walk a friend suggested we visited Lastingham Grange since she recommended the food so highly. We therefore decided to have morning coffee before starting our walk. The gracious hosts suggested we sat on the terrace which was just heavenly in the sunshine, surrounded by the stone walls of the hotel, flowers and trees and the scent of the roses in the sunken garden was divine. Coffee turned into a late breakfast and I enjoyed a perfect bacon sandwich, in toast, served with a sprig of lavender on the plate. Just £4.99! My husband thoroughly enjoyed his Eggs Benedict which also cost £4.99, and we were loathe to leave. Total bill came to £17.23! We've booked Sunday Lunch next! As other reviewers have said, this is the perfect English countryside small family hotel. No one would call us 'guys' here!

Lastingham, with it’s delightful St Mary’s church, is mentioned by the Venerable Bede. On the edge of the North Yorkshire Moors, close to the villages of Rosedale and Hutton le Hole, it is picture perfect.

What a wonderful time we had. It was my partners birthday which the staff did not until after we arrived but they produced a small cake with a candle. We were offered seconds of beef and Yorkshire puddings and cheese to follow our dessert. The meal was delicious, the staff achieved a perfect balance between attentiveness and not being pushy, the wine was excellent and the surroundings were so comfortable and relaxed. We will definitely be back. Many, many thanks.

Was given an afternoon tea as a birthday gift from my work colleagues and, as my wife and I were visiting Lastingham, picked Lastingham Grange as our venue of choice - and what a perfect choice it turned out to be. A traditional, well-presented afternoon tea with a great selection of everything you would expect all served in the comfort of a old country house setting. The owners and staff were friendly and very welcoming and could not have been more hospitable. After a welcoming glass of wine we were presented with our pot of Yorkshire tea, freshly prepared sandwiches, cakes and warm scones with jam and clotted cream.

A family time and planned visit. Sunshine so sat shaded beside the rose garden to enjoy our light lunches. Served willingly, unobtrusively and pleasantly by our welcoming host owner & staff. The gardens are a delight. The aspect of the place conjures feelings of quiet, established security rooted in a past we thought was gone but is not lost here. Absolutely, a place to relax and recuperate.

Waren hier vor zwei Jahren schon mal zum lunch auf der Terrasse und es hat uns sehr gut gefallen, die Speisen und der Service waren sehr gut.

This is a very tranquil place with a beautiful garden. Fresh flowers from the garden in the restaurant. A lovely place to have a meal.

Me encontré con ese lugar hace unos años, por casualidad y me he alojado aquí unas cuantas veces. A veces sólo por una noche, pero principalmente para dos noches en un tiempo, también me he alojado en la casa de autoservicio a pocos metros por la carretera (las habitaciones viejas leer creo que se llama) las cabañas es una excelente relación calidad-precio y se haga una gran base para explorar la zona de a, de todos modos e local. . . De regreso al hotel. por la crítica.

Fuimos allí para comer el domingo con mi esposa, habíamos oído cosas buenas y no nos decepcionó.

Four of us had lunch here - mainly what I would describe as superior salads. All the food was excellent, and the service courteous and efficient. Well worth trying if you are in this part of Yorkshire. Plenty of parking too.

Almorzamos en el restaurante en Lastingham Grange Hotel. Este es un hotel encantador país período, si un equipo cinematográfico explorando lugares para hacer un misterio de Agatha Christie Miss Marple buscarían que tenían que hacer ni cambios para mejorar la época de este establecimiento! Mientras almuerza podíamos imaginar fácilmente Joan Hickson, sentados en una mesa en la esquina viendo el resto de la empresa.

Este restaurante sirve buena comida de calidad en un ambiente cálido y acogedor. Situado en el borde de los páramos al Norte de Nueva York en un atractivo pueblo puedes disfrutar de un paseo en un paisaje encantador, ya sea antes o después de su comida.

set meal @ £42 for 4 courses and coffee..good choice of selection through the courses...chose the game pate very nice indeed...then watercress soup...again very nice...steak for main course...and i have to say the BEST steak i have ever had, quality and cooked perfectly...and i don't mean tolerable...i mean perfect,vegetables beautifully done and sweet to follow....coffee in the lounge afterwards with chocolates..even the coffee was lovely

Comfortable but old fashioned. The very formal dining room lacked atmosphere. The salad main course was poor, with the ingredients cut up too small, lacking a good dressing.

Breakfast was beautufully presented with good choice

Super traditional afternoon tea with freshly made sandwiches, scones, mini cakes and choice of tease for £15 in beautiful gardens, perfect place to relax for a few hours.

We a group of 41 like minded people of mixed genders mixed age some with walking restrictions some of us had met previously others not. This visit was part of an interesting day planned to be meaningful and enjoyable. This part of the day was to have lunch at the Lastingham Grange. We arrived in separate cars so plenty of convenient parking, We were met and welcomed at the door early arrivers were sitting areas in the garden and offered drinks. when all had arrived a delightful two course lunch was perfectly served. Afterwards coffee in the lounge. I was SPOT ON

we had a wonderful lunch, out in the garden with the scent of roses all around, all we asked for was seemingly no probem..... peace, beauty, care and delicious food.....what more could one wish for? thank you.

We had an excellent meal starting with a drink and canopays on the terrace outside overlooking the garden. There was a good selection of starters we both had the crab and shrimp pot. There was then a soup course or sorbet followed by the main, my wife had lamb I had poached sea trout. There was a good selection of deserts and to round it off we were offered a selection of Yorkshire cheeses off the cheese board. We had booked an overnight stay which was very comfortable. I was not long out of hospital and had not been eating well, so to tuck into this meal it was a real bonus. Also recommmend the cream tea.

Excellent choice of wine and by the glass. Superb head waiter. On occasions the waitresses put down food without saying what it was.

We had lunch this time and thoroughly enjoyed the meal and surroundings, it's rare to find such a welcoming unique place cannot fault it. We have previously had a champagne afternoon tea which I rate very highly too.

A pleasant experience, but the website wasn't clear. We thought we'd booked for Sunday lunch... timing turned out to mean we had to settle for afternoon tea (which was very nice!)

This is a charming countryside hotel in a lovely Yorkshire location.We booked this venue as a meeting point to celebrate an 80th birthday party with around 30 guests.Everything was courteously & professionally executed. The welcome given to everyone was friendly & genuine. The service was exceptional.; Polite & attentive at all times without being in the least intrusive.The food orders were taken efficiently, and all the meals delivered promptly & together.The food was all very well prepared with good sized portions & ample side dishes.The nature of the event meant that the "lunch" lasted for most of the day, but we were never hurried in the slightest, and the service remained exemplary throughout.I noticed that there were a number of couples, and smaller groups, also having Sunday lunch in their other dining areas (we were given a suitably sized private room for our party). From what I observed the high culinary standards & level of service that we received was applied to all their patrons.A truly traditional & well run establishment, in a perfect rural getaway location.

I have now been here three times and I have to say its due to the attention to detail that this gem succeeds. From the exquisite furnishings and setting to the exemplary service. One canot forget the delicious locally sourced food, my personal favourite is the filet steak with blue cheese source! An absolutel must if you are in the area!

a hidden gem fantastic quality food beautiful settinglarge wooden playground set in the groundspresentation 10/10

One day I shall stay here but I thoroughly enjoyed a pot of tea and delicious scones. The whole place is magic- old fashioned and special, the staff are extremely nice and nothing is too much trouble.Well worth a visit.

A hidden gem. Lovely surroundings, excellent food an impeccable service. Highly recommended. Step back in time to a traditional experience.

Charming "retro" hotel - preserved in aspic, perhaps? - in a little village slightly off the beaten track - approach roads single track in parts. Previous reviews had led us to expect good food, but it was better than that - excellent local ingredients imaginatively cooked & presented, & served by enthusiastic & friendly young waitresses. We went there for dinner (we were staying in a cottage a few miles away) so can't comment on other meals or on the accommodation.

We chanced upon Lastingham Grange about 12 months ago when we called in for lunch during a walk on the North Yorkshire Moors. The hospitality and friendliness in the way we were greeted and the quality of the lunchtime food dictated that perhaps the next time we were in the area we would try Lastingham Grange for our evening meal. We weren't disappointed. The same friendly and attentive staff greeted us on our arrival and the service was very good. The meals we ordered were well presented although a more leisurely pace between courses would have been preferred on our part. This is easily within our ability to make the staff aware that we'd like just a little more time between courses, however it certainly wouldn't stop us from going back there again when we're on the North Yorks Moors.

a celebratory lunch today was a treat from two friends well known to the hotel. Welcomed warmly and invited to sit in the spacious, comfortable lounge whilst we made our choices. It was lovely simply being able to relax in such homely charm. Lunch was served in the warm dining room - belly pork, steak & kidney pudding, beetroot & goats cheese salad, strawberry roulade, mango parfait and bilberry goats milk ice cream - washed down with a glass of Merlot (each!) and topped off by tea & coffee (really good coffee) back in the lounge. The weather was cold and overcast but we still took a turn around the expansive grounds before having to head away back into reality. Absolutely recommended as a place where comfort, service, charm and peace are available in abundance to restore the world-weary soul.

Non-Residents can have, morning coffee, Lunch, Afternoon tea or Dinner (dinner must be booked.We must rave about the afternoon tea (options with Pimms or Champagne.) Everything tastes delicious and the scones are out of this world - served warm. You can eat anywhere in the Hotel. We recommend on the terrace if the weather is warm. All you can hear are the birds and he occasional bleat of moorland sheep. If you stay in the lounge you ae transported back to the 40s to 50s - you could just imagine "Miss Marples" sitting in the corner observing everyone whilst knitting!The owners, the Wood family, give you a personal welcome and show you to your desired eating area. All staff are well trained and friendly.

It takes a bit of finding as it is at the end of a cul de sac leading to the moors, but worth the trip. We only had tea and scones in the garden, but the scones were definitely above average even if a bit pricy at £6 for tea and scone with jam and clotted cream. I suspect the restaurant food will be very good and we shall try it soon.

We went yesterday for afternoon tea and it was super, great service and welcome plus superb home made food, apricot scones warm from the oven, will definitely return.

Lovely afternoon tea in comfortable surroundings. Very attentive service and reasonable size car park.

What a find. Although we didn't eat in the Restaurant (we will the next time we visit).Found the Lastingham Grange by chance when we were on a walk in the North Yorks Moors. Beautiful location and everyone made us feel so welcome.We had a bar snack and the presentation and attention to detail was superb and the food and the condiments, (especially the gooseberry chutney), were excellent.It's a super, quiet location that seems in the middle of nowhere and all of the staff are great. A very personal touch from everyone there made it feel very special.

big portions and great meal. I have been lots of times but it seems to keep getting better. Certainly one of my favorites

Read all the amazing reviews so decided to give this a try for a birthday lunch. Somewhat disappointed to find ourselves alone in the dining room at first, but fortunately a few more people arrived......mostly fairly elderly and there was a very " hushed" atmosphere.Our thoughts on the food were mixed; smoked haddock and spinach pancake starter was tasty as was my husband's cheese terrine. His roast rack of venison was excellent but my pork fillet in cider sauce with caramelised apples was very disappointing and actually had quite a lot of mushrooms in (the menu did not mention mushrooms) and the apples had not been caramelised.Vegetables were extremely disappointing; diced swede and spinach. For a restaurant of this standard we had expected a better and more colourful selection.We opted out of desert but ordered coffee. This was served in the comfortable and attractive lounge but again we were disappointed as the coffee was very weak and we were very surprised that no chocolate or petit four was served with it as in most places.The two two course meals, a bottle of wine and coffee for two came to over £60, fair enough usually for a country hotel/ restaurant such as this, but on this occasion we did not feel we had had good value.Having read such good reviews it is perhaps possible that we were unlucky to be there on a quiet day and maybe even the regular chef was not there.There is no doubt it is in a lovely setting and it was nice to experience " old fashioned" service and charm. I am sure it is a lovely place to stay as it felt very homely and welcoming and staff were clearly eager to please. The beautiful, tranquil garden is a real plus too.We were very pleased to have been.......for the experience, but sadly were a little disappointed with the food and think that we were just unlucky the day we chose, hence the " average" rating given, rather than " very good".

My father celebrated his 85th birthday by inviting family members to Lastingham Grange for lunch. The menu had been personalised with his name and at my request had made a birthday cake which had a hand drawn picture of the moors with heather on them. We had a five course lunch with coffee afterwards. Each course was beautifully presented. My father is stil in awe that they know what everyone had ordered and where to place the dish without asking! There is never a need to rush. Staff are polite and courteous. Whatever you wanted they bend over backwards to provide.My parents have been there several times. I was treated to a birthday lunch in the lounge a couple of years ago. Superb.

visited today and enjoyed a superb meal in an outstanding setting provided by attentive staff. I heard one staff member say: "there is no rush at Lastingham" and there wasn't.Lunch was served in the Dining room - it could have been so on the terrace - and it was delicious. Soup, terrine, duck leg and steak & kidney pudding plus veggies. The wine list was extensive but we stuck to soft drinks & were not disappointed.Coffee was served on a shaded part of the terrace with space for quiet conversation. A turn around the grounds was a peaceful joy. Desert followed much later in the afternoon!

Having visited here last year and thoroughly enjoying it,we felt we had to return when we had vistors from Canada with us.We visited on a beautiful sunny day and were able to sit out in the lovely gardens.We were warmly greeted,the food was delicious and very plentiful,the service excellent and the lovely bottle of french wine went down a treat.As our friend commented it was all done with a sense of elegance and we could easily have sat there all afternoon.It was the highlight of our day and we will be back again.Dont miss it its a definite must!

There are few places anywhere to equal this traditional Country House hotel. You can expect to be treated as honoured house guests and you will receive service rarely experienced in 'posher' establishments. The Restaurant is charming. The food is wonderfully traditional British, excellently prepared and presented. The wine list is extensive and reasonably priced. If you are in the area don't miss this gem nestling on the edge of the Yorkshie Moors.

The food at Lastingham Grange is well presented and well cooked. The menu varies every day and includes local produce. Dinner consists of a starter, soup or sorbet, main course, ,dessert cheese and coffee. The restaurant staff are very efficient.

Lovely gardens and a great place to go for afternoon tea! Their gluten free scones were divine! We did not have time to sample the cocktails, but we will go back in the near future to try!

Personal friendly service that goes the extra mile. Delightful surroundings superb menu choices and two special diets (diabetic and gluten free) catered for in our party. A thoroughly enjoyable experience from being shown into the lounge to make menu choices over a pre-meal drink to returning to the lounge for after-meal coffee.

We visited this delightful hidden gem this week while on holiday in the Scarborough area. We discovered it via the Hi Life card and were able to take advantage of savings which was an added bonus!It was a lovely pleasant journey of discovery through the countryside to arrive at Lastingham Grange. When we arrived and saw the grandeur of the place we were a little concerned we may be under-dressed - but on voicing our concerns to the lady who greeted us we were quickly assured that 'there were no rules here' which really put us at ease. This set the tone for the rest of our visit which we enjoyed immensely.It started with drinks in the stunning garden round the back of the house, which was just bursting with colour and was obviously well cared for. We were then shown into the dining room for our 5 course lunch which was delicious from start to finish - highlight had to be the roast beef dinner, a plate full of top quality beef and home made huge Yorkshire Puddings (we were encouraged to have 2 or more of these if we wanted by the very charming young man who was serving us). The dessert of nutty meringues was a fitting sweet end to the meal - we were even asked if we wanted seconds!!Throughout the meal the service we received really was second to none, the staff were attentive yet kept out of the way when not needed. We have never experienced anything quite like it. Overall I would just like to say that we felt so at home at Lastingham Grange and it's reassuring to know there are still some establishments out there who know how to provide first class customer service and first class home made food!Thank you - we WILL be back! :-)

My friend and I turned up here for morning coffee and were well looked after. We sat in the garden and were served very professionally. We loved looking round the garden and have promised ourselves another visit, which we must do.

After a delightful drive over the moors,you arrive at this hidden treasure,with its old fashioned charm,where theres always a very warm welcome .Sitting out on the terrace for your pre lunch drinks is recommended ,so you can admire the well manicured garden,But If its a bit on the cool side there's a comfy home from home lounge with a nice log fire,to peruse the menu.The food is fantastic,with service that's how it should be .A special place to go on a special occasion,I'm certainly looking forward to my next visit.A relaxing experience leaving the rat race behind and stopping the clock for a few hours..

We only live 5 miles from this enchanting establishment so we have not stayed as guests there. However, since discovering it by chance several years ago, it has become a firm favourite. We visit for lunch or tea whenever we feel the need to relax and restore our spirits. In the warm weather we sit, read and eat in the garden, which is extensive, beautiful and so peaceful. When it is colder we go into the lounge where there are comfortable sofas and chairs and a lovely fire. We are greeted by name and are made to feel most welcome.This is a family run establishment and the family and their staff are delightful. The place is not modern or smart. It is more in keeping with Miss Marple, feels like home, warm, welcoming, comfortable and spotless. The food is outstanding. It is a treasure, an oasis of calm, friendly, outstanding quality. The countryside in which it stands is incomparable. Treat yourself to a visit. You will love it.

For breakfast there is a selection of cereals and fruit, etc. plus a full English cooked breakfast cooked to order. Dinner was a set price with many choices. The steak was memorable!

Very little has changed over 25 years in the extraordinarily high standards of the discrete and friendly service, wonderful food and exceptional location and atmosphere. Words cannot do the owners and staff justice for the unpretentious quality of this place in all its facets - a real gem. Drinks on the terrace in the beautiful grounds, followed by Sunday lunch here just cannot be bettered.
