Tudor Farmhouse Restaurant in Forest of Dean

The dinner was one of the most inventive, delicious meals we have ever eaten. Faultless, understated and fantastic. Service was unobtrusive and efficient with a very simple, good wine list

We stayed at the Tudor Farmhouse and were lucky enough to enjoy a fabulous evening meal in their restaurant. We were welcomed by a great front of house team who were friendly and shown to our beautiful room which was well appointed with amenities and warm. We had booked into the restaurant where were were treated to personal service by staff who were engaging. Our food was exceptional. I am lactose intolerant and (for perhaps the first time ever) this was of no impediment to enjoying the breadth of the menu. Our food was delicious, sensibly portioned to fill us up but allowing us to enjoy 3 courses. The menu was creative and we both would have happily eaten any of the options. Thank you for a wonderful overnight stay and experience - we will be back! The breakfast and packed lunch were also great!

Lovely little hotel/restaurant in the Wye Valley. We wanted to treat ourselves to a nice meal and this was the place ! Fairly priced for the quality, lovely staff and the restaurant itself is charming. If you want a quick bite or a fancy meal , it ticks all the boxes. Definitely recommend 👌

Best restaurant meal I’ve ever had. I’m a Coeliac so have to have a gluten free diet, I happen to be a vegetarian too. Chef was happy to adjust every meal on the menu to make it suitable for me. As a lifelong Coelic, this is the best hospitality service I’ve had. The main meal was beautiful, really lovely and the pudding- well- fabulous. Hands down the best restaurant meal I’ve ever had. The setting is great, warm and relaxed and intimate but not confined. Give yourself a treat and try this restaurant. If you have a dietary need just let the team know and you’re in for a treat.

This was such an amazing restaurant, cozy atmosphere, first class staff and the food was exceptional!! I had pig head terrine for starter and Oh my gosh!!! It's so delicious wonderfully made.. and had Sea bream and roast scallop and again it was cooked to perfection and of course, had to try the dessert and had a Tonka pannacotta oh lala it melts in my mouth it's so so yummy. Thanks you guys for our experience and making our meal extra special 💕. Highly recommended try for yourself.

We stayed for 2 nights, the breakfast was excellent, eggs both mornings cooked beautifully. We had dinner on one night and although the food was good the menu was limited, no chicken or red meat, so we both had Venison, which was expensive for what it was. The wine list was oriented towards France, Italy & Spain. For a lover of Cabernet and Malbec from the southern hemisphere the choice was limited, we would have spent more given a wider choice, opted for carafe of the house wine.

Food excellent, not a large menu. Very lovely sitting out in the garden. TF is tucked away in Clearwell and a real gem.

Afternoon tea, absolutely delicious

Fantastic place beautiful gardens rooms quite large well appointed food really good lovely breakfast

Stayed for a Friday night and then did foraging course with Liz. Really nice comfortable room with lovely courtyard to sit in. Food delicious with good friendly service. Foraging course superb Liz very informative with great fun delivery

Beautiful Hotel in a lovely village. Rooms are beautiful and well laid out. Luxury Bramley toiletries, dressing gowns, coffee machine and fridge in room. Resterant serves delicious food from local suppliers. Fantastic wine menu. Breakfast has excellent choices and again delicious. Staff are friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.

Great afternoon tea with good service in a beautiful village and in a Tudor house .

We had two fantastic dinners whilst staying at the hotel; taster menu one evening and a la carte the next. The taster menu was one of the best meals I have ever had. The food was absolutely delicious and looked amazing. Warm bread was served with the meal and we were offered more if we wanted it. The service was attentive without being overbearing and the chef sent out an extra surprise treat for our birthdays.

Congratulations to the Tudor Farmhouse team. Superb hotel with great service, lovely surroundings in a small village and a top quality dining experience. The head chef Gavin stopped to chat with us after his shift and was delighted to tell us about his produce, menu and wines. The front desk and bar team were a pleasure and couldn't do enough - producing a bespoke walk of the local footpaths. The rooms were presented to a very high standard with excellent mattress, pillows and bedding. Highly recommended for a lazy culinary weekend or active walking and sights of the Wye Valley and Forest of Dean. Thank you. Paul & Julia C

I was expecting the food to be excellent but it was very mediocre. The staff were very nice though.

Good choice. Delicious starters, tasty mains - enjoyed the cod, sea bream & pork tenderloin as I was there for 3 nights. Good cheeseboard. And some very good wines

We booked a weekend away at the hotel to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The package we chose was “The Foodie Experience” and we were not disappointed. Service was A* … every member of staff spoke as if they knew the menu intimately. Knowledgable, passionate, able to confidently make recommendations. The surroundings were lovely. The one room feels more modern but the darker light created a nice ambience. The main dining room is rustic, warm and cosy. On the first night we had a five course taster menu… plus muse-bouche and petit-fours. Portions were not big enough to leave you bloated and didn’t need to be. The richness of flavours and freshness of product was just perfect. Every course was great but I’d happily recommend the beef with ox cheek eight days a week! The highlight however was the dessert, a passion fruit “compressed cream” with a pineapple salsa and pear sorbet. The following night we had the à la carte which was equally sublime. The pork was sublime and the dessert again wonderful … thanks Chef for doing your signature spiced apple and caramel dessert without the calvados! Great value, brilliant taste and super service.

Fabulous food, beautifully prepared and presented. Great, professional waiting staff too. Cosy environment, with stunning furniture and a country vibe.

I booked three nights here for my girlfriends 27th birthday- it was a perfect combination of relaxation and good cuisine. The location is a great HQ to go on long, winding walks in the local area; knowing that there was a good meal at the end of it certainly gave us peace of mind! The staff were very accommodating, and offered us advice to where to walk/visit. The food was very well done, both the breakfast and dinners. With a plethora of options for dinner, we were spoilt for choice. All around a great weekend!

Oustanding chef and service, excellent quality food well cooked and presented. Interesting menu, good wine list - greatly enjoyed.

I stayed here overnight for a funeral in the area. I'm very glad I did. What a brilliant stay. It exceeded my expectations in all departments. Firstly they were very accommodating to my request for late check out. I was shown to my room. I booked the smallest room but it was still pretty big, very high ceilings, high quality fixtures and fittings. Good size bathroom with huge shower. Coffee machine and tea in room. Flannels provided! Hooray! Bedding all of the best quality. And they have 2 electric car chargers in the car park. Food exceptional. Best mackerel I've ever had. Lovely breakfast. I know it seems expensive but for what you get it is actually very good value. Couldn't fault the place, from food, to the room to the service. Highly recommended.

Had a three night stay at the Tudor Farmhouse Hotel and ate at the restaurant every night, the food and service was outstanding!! The two room choice gave it a cosy feel and the menu was varied with something for everyone. If you have an allergy, they ensure that you are not asked every time you eat. Highly recommended and we will be back ❤️

We were on half board as part of a 3 night stay. Breakfast was good - perfect eggs Benedict and the tastiest bacon that I’ve had in ages. Limited selection of cereals etc, but good enough as it’s a small hotel. The evening menu is also quite small ( 2 meat, 2 fish and 2 veggie that change monthly), but the quality can’t be faulted. We couldn’t choose a favourite between the quality of the beef and the flavour of the peppercorn sauce with the pork. The apple tart with caramel sauce just pipped the chocolate cremeux into first place. Great service and no problems with tweaks to accommodate my fussiness ( sorry Gavin!). The only minor quibble was the cost of soft drinks not being shown on the menu ( other than mocktails).

The food is fantastic. Easy to engage with chef. We were there for my wife's 70th. They made a great deal of effort to enjoy our food. Everything was faultless. Staff were friendly and engaging.

Had a fabulous experience for my birthday, the afternoon tea was delicious and the staff were attentive and friendly. I will definitely be back.

We had a delicious meal at the Tudor Farmhouse Restaurant. Both my husband and I had the pork for main course and it was delicious. I followed this with a most tasty dark Chocolate very light mouse. All in all an excellent meal .

Fabulous food over a new year break. We took advantage of a two day break at the hotel that included Dinner on both nights. We thoroughly enjoyed the food, particularly the tasting menu on New Year’s Eve. We would recommend anyone to eat there even if you are not staying. We will certainly return.

My husband and I spent Christmas at the Tudor Farmhouse with four of our children. The entire stay was absolutely wonderful. From the rooms to the staff to the food, nothing could be faulted. We also brought a four month old retriever puppy who was treated like royalty. A lot of hotels claim to be dog friendly, but this one went over and above our expectations. Geoff, our Boxing Day walk guide, was terrific and shared with us lots of local knowledge. We would like to mention Katy, Sammy and Dawson who looked after us all so well. Thank you.

Beautiful, cosy, charming - excellent service. Had Christmas Eve Lunch here which was cooked perfectly and excellent value.

Nice atmosphere in a cosy village for Christmas. We went for Christmas dinner and it was very nice overall but the portions were quite small, especially the starter, and slightly overpriced for the amount of food. Good quality though and cosy area!

We had a three night stay including breakfasts and dinners. The food was delicious! The Eggs Florentine were amazing, and the fruit salad was fresh and tasty. The dinner menu was classic, extremely well executed, with good variety to suit omnivores, pescatarians, and vegetarians. Large wine list, with great options by the glass. The petit fours mince pies were absolutely incredible - crisp buttery pastry and a perfect way to end the meal.

This was our 3 visit for Dinner, Bed and Breakfast. As allows, very good food provided by very helpful staff.

We recently stayed for a long weekend at Tudor Farmhouse and enjoyed 3 delicious breakfasts. The Other Half had everything he could each day and it was all perfectly prepared and cooked. They even had Marmite for our toast! I was a little more reserved and had the yoghurt pots and poached and scrambled eggs (on different days!) with smoked salmon. We had a light meal on the evening we arrived and again the standard of presentation and flavours was excellent. The only reason we didn't enjoy a full evening meal on any of the nights we were there was because we were out meeting friends for lunch each day and we only need one full meal a day! Couldn't fault what we did have.

Beautiful place. Food was lovely although they didn't do roast potatoes to go with the roast dinners, They served us chips instead cause they don't cook roast potatoes on an evening, which I found bizarre for the amount of money they took from us It's more for couples due to it being very small. So a large party like we had, was hard to fit us all in Overall, nice experience I don't think I would go back

We had a brilliant time and had a really good meal. Excellently presented and really tasty for all three courses.

We stayed the weekend at Tudor Farmhouse and contary to normal, we elected to have dinner in both nights. Great decision. Each course had several options that we would have willingly ordered. The food was novel, interesting, delicious and beautifully presented. Additionally, the staff were lovely. So pleased we chose to stay in and thoroughly enjoy both our dinners.

Very nice place with an excellent restaurant - old room with bags of character, we found it warm and cosy, perhaps a little too warm? - but we had a good stopover (1 night only)

Very good food, but menu quite small. Halibut and cod was excellent as was the cheeseboard. The beef and ox cheek was very good as were the desserts

Had a wonderful Christmas lunch with a large group of friends. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. I was very impressed with the selection of vegan options available. I was also pleased to see a good variety of alcohol free drinks. Thank you for a fantastic afternoon.

We stayed at the hotel so ate in the restaurant on two nights, enjoying a three-course dinner as part of our package. It’s a small-ish menu but high quality ingredients sourced locally whenever possible. Meals were served promptly and were nicely presented on attractive plates....

Seriously fine dining. Imaginative, well executed dishes with exemplary service and top notch wine list to match. No idea why this does not have a michellin star yet. It can only be a matter of time.

We stayed one night and dined in the restaurant. The menu, the cooking, the service and the dining room were all exactly what we hoped for. Thoroughly recommend it. A good choice of reasonably priced wines by the glass and by the carafe (which I...

Excellent atmosphere, attentive staff, superb food using local, fresh produce. Well worth a visit for a celebration or just a very nice evening meal.

This is a beautiful Tudor building and a stunning boutique hotel. We enjoyed lunch here prior to having a massage , one of the many additional experiences they offer . The food was delicious. The service was great and the environment was stunning. The massage which was inside a quirky shepherds hut was amazing, and Sarah was knowledgeable and an exceptionally good masseuse. I would really recommend a visit.

Each dish was very attractively presented and flavoursome and delicious to eat. We stayed for 2 nights at this hotel having DB&B here. Excellent value for money. Restaurant had a good ambiance. Restastaff excellent.

Visited four times now for a stay and food always excellent. Portions small for some but just right for us and our companions, Quality and taste is what matters. Being able to fit in three courses plus beads and amuse bouche without feeling bloated testifies...

Fabulous in every way - rooms and room facilities, ensuite, breakfast, cocktails, dinner, wine list, friendly and approachable staff, location etc etc

The dishes of this restaurant shows that a chef of rare talent is at work in the kitchen. Starters were imaginative, delicate but full of flavour, and properly-sized so as not to induce a feeling of being sated too soon. Basing starters purely on beetroot...

During our stay at Tudor Farmhouse, we had our evening meal on both nights. It was beautiful - started off with a quality cocktail and followed with an amuse-busch and homemade bread - so light. Our starters, mains and (in the case of my husband)...

The food did not disappoint. We had checked the menu, and it looked very sophisticated with an emphasis on local ingredients. Service was excellent. Home made bread and an amuse voucher were unexpected and delicious.The starters were beautifully presented and delicious and my usually underwhelmed...

The restaurant is cosy and has character. The food was lovely - both breakfast and dinner. The menu is really interesting and original. This was our 4th visit and it was as nice as ever! Great staff too. Try friendly.

The room we stayed in was absolutely stunning, as was the location. Staff were polite and very helpful if anything was needed. Would definitely recommend staying here.

We were impressed by the scale and quality of the improvements to the exterior. On arrival we asked to be seated for a cocktail before dinner. The room was cold as there was no fire in the magnificent inglenook. A rosy glow however small can...

We popped into the restaurant at lunchtime as we had just arrived to attend a wedding at the castle the next day. Our waitress, Sammy was lovely. Very friendly & accommodating. We both had some sandwiches. My husband also asked if the chef could rustle...

We stayed at the hotel for two nights having dinner over the two nights. Although a small restaurant, it had charm. The menu was varied and gave most people a good choice. The presentation was excellent and the food was delicious and would be a...

We ate in the restaurant for the three nights we stayed there. The menu caters for a diversity of tastes. We were a little disappointed that there was no Wild Boar in an area where there are. However the beef and pork is excellent, the plates beautiful. The vegetarian options are very imaginative and a good choice given. Breakfasts catering is generous and should appeal to everyone.

amazing food. slightly limited on choice but more than made up for when received. portions are small but if you have three courses you are very comfortably full by the end. the main pork dish was the winner for me - fantastic. the artisan cheeseboard was also really good.

Amazing food. Rooms lovely and very well kept. Friendly staff. Very out of the way.

Service faultless, every meal top notch, including the complimentary tasters of farmhouse bread and a soup. Wine list excellent. A very enjoyable evening!

Wir haben im (auch sehr empfehlenswerten) Hotel übernachtet und abends im Restaurant gegessen. Es war ein wirklich wunderschöner Abend. Wir hatten Vorspeise, Hauptspeise und weil alles so gut war, mussten wir dann einfach noch das Dessert ausprobieren. Der Service war aufmerksam, das Essen wirklich köstlich. Aussehen und Qualität top. Das Ambiente isst auch sehr schön, wir würden den Raum vielleicht ein kleines bisschen heller beleuchten, so dass man das grossartige Essen noch besser sehen kann.

Compliments to the chef! Superb dinner - my husband had the pork dish and I had the salted cod - it was so good that we had the same for our 2nd night! Fab desserts and coffee too! Lovely cosy restaurant and friendly service. Would love to return one day. Thank you so much to chef and Tudor Farmhouse Team!

Really enjoyed the dinner, was well presented and cooked to perfection. The staff were attentive without being overbearing and provided excellent service. The surroundings were impressive and there is a lounge area for after dinner drinks, etc.

Beautifully presented and tasty food. Over three nights we sampled the beef, pork, halibut, and salt pork. Fresh takes on old favorites! The pannacotta and cheese board were lovely finishes to our meals. Service was attentive and friendly. All in all, a delightful dining experience....

A lovely place for Sunday lunch we have been a few times the food and service has always been good sadly not this time food was great all served on a very hot plate I asked for also as I do not eat cheese they...

Gastro Delight! Just the loveliest meal in a beautiful setting with wonderful waiting staff. We chose the tasting menu and they adapted the fish course for my husband, every course was exquisite and beautifully paired with wines. Alberto is an absolute character and made our...

Lovely and quaint hotel. Very vegan friendly, both for dinner and breakfast. We had a full 3 courses dinner with onion soup, followed by beet polenta & vegetables and we finished with a chocolate mousse for dessert. All 3 were delicious! At breakfast we feasted on a vegan English breakfast followed by a soya yogurt with granola and toast. Perfect! Great service all around, quick and charming. Would definitely recommend the place !

Lovely staff. Good food. Afternoon tea finger sandwiches were heavenly. Fresh bread, local ingredients. Just yum. Room clean & cosy. Slept well. Loved the green shower tiles. Lots to do in the area. Narrow roads & gravel entrance hard to spot. But once here you won’t regret it.

Beautiful building and well maintained garden.

Friendly staff. Pleasant ambience. Charming building with nooks and crannies for chats over coffee.

You won't be disappointed with the Tudor Farmhouse, great location in Clearwell.

Stayed here for two nights. The whole dining experience was excellent. A good choice of all three courses. Table service was efficient and unobtrusive. Most importantly it tasted good as well. Top notch.

Comfortable and characterful restaurant, with friendly and knowledgeable staff. We had the tasting menu with the flight of wines, which was varied and delicious. Amemorable anniversary trip!

Had an overnight stay here, service was faultless and food was superb with a fantastic wine menu - only grumble was that the extra chips ordered came late and were very soggy.

The tasting menu and wine pairing was a real treat! Each course was imaginativey and creatiely presented - the combinations of taste and presentation were really good - the wine tasting with each course was really well selected - it was a most enjoyale and...

The staff were very helpful. The food was so, so good! The location and style of the place was charming. A great option for a short break and we will come again.

We had an amazing afternoon tea at The Tudor Farmhouse. Everything was delicious and Sammy and her team looked after us and made sure we had everything we wanted. Will be recommending to friends and family :)

Had afternoon tea there it was excellent plenty enough for 2 and they boxed up what was left to take home friendly staff made it a real treat

All rooms are so cute and cozy. Both breakfast and dinner are fantastic. Dinner comes with amuse bouche, tasting menu available. For ala carte, there are full of options (fish, meat,veg) with local produce. Loved crispy lamb appetiser. Staff are friendly and welcoming. Nice place to stay for a weekend getaway at British countryside.

Had a 4-night, dinner, bed and breakfast stay. Breakfast was excellent, with a very good choice. We didn't try the tasting menu, but the food was perfectly cooked and presented. Great to see that ingredients were locally sourced. We also took advantage of the light...

We stayed at the hotel and had dinner bed and breakfast. The staff were welcoming and attentive. The wine (from Tintern Parva locally) was fresh and crisp. The food was really excellent, locally sourced and, simply, tasty. I’d recommend for a place to treat yourself...

wonderful food and service in an excellent setting. if only one area could be suggested for improvement is that some of the wine choices on the wine flight were slightly naive and they could benefit from a proper sommelier but it was tremendous value and...

amazing chef producing an excellent and good value tasting menu. nice rooms and lovely service. gardens outside are a delight for a drink too

Food was delicious and luxury. Staff were friendly

Nice rooms the food is ok not enough on your plate however they cannot cook a simple pasta meal for the kids it was Unedible however we got a full refund for the past meal

Excellent restaurant. Varied menu. Tried a few options over 3 nights and all were delicious. If you don't like pink meat (like me) ask for well done - for the lamb & pigeon. Good choice of wines but, as always, worth paying a bit more...

The food is delicious here, excellent value for this level of quality. The halibut and lamb main courses that we had were really fab and we have paid more than double for less quality in London. Good selection of drinks including extensive non-alcoholic options.

Very fine dining in exceptional surroundings. We loved the ambiance as much as the food. A memorable evening.

We ate here for lunch during a business strategy day and ordered afternoon tea - what a delight! I couldn't finish everything on the display, but enjoyed every last bite! Would highly recommend!

Went yesterday for cream tea it was a bday present the food was out this world the staff were very nice to recommend a afternoon tea

Took my mum for afternoon tea for her 80th birthday. Fabulous, friendly service. We were very well looked after and the afternoon tea was gorgeous. Sandwiches were very fresh, scones were delicious. Thank you!

We had afternoon tea here today and it was excellent. The best scones we'd had in a long while. Service was amazing and we were even lucky with the weather so sat outside

We first stayed here a few years ago and have returned again every year. For our most recent visit we stayed in a lovely Cockrel room which was in the main Tudor building, had a four poster bed and a luxurious large bathroom with a rolltop bath and separate shower. The food is always delicious and there are great vegetarian options. The service was excellent and the staff were very friendly as always. The hotel is located in an idilic village with some lovely countryside walks you can do from the hotel. Would highly recommend Tudor Farmhouse to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.

Beautiful hotel, amazing food, and great service from friendly and helpful staff

Delicious tasting menu with perfectly paired wines

Stunning place. Lovely food. Super service. A real treat

This was our third stay....and we were so pleased to return. It was comfortable, cosy and so relaxing. The food was delicious. The staff are so willing to help and provide wonderful service. It’s just a perfect stay for us especially as it is also...

We held a 90th birthday lunch at the Tudor Farmhouse last Sat. We chose the set three course lunch - four options per course - something for everyone and the hotel were really on the ball with diners with allergies. The room was left for...

We enjoyed Sunday lunch at Tudor Farmhouse today. Delicious. From the moment we walked in the door the staff were friendly, attentive and nothing was too much trouble.

Visited today for afternoon tea with friends. Very pleasant experience. Delicious food, friendly staff and lovely surroundings. Will definitely recommend and hopefully return another day.

We stayed 2 nights whilst attending a wedding at the Castle. We had 'The Cottage' twas like a holiday cottage. Very warm welcome. Exceptionally clean. Very delicious dinner and breakfast. Locally produced, high quality food served. Very nice wine list and a beautiful bottle of Chablis. Real milk, bottled water and home made cookies in the room. A pleasant and relaxing stay. We will be returning come autumn.
