The best restaurants in Caunton Newark and Sherwood East Midlands

Been to this wonderful place before. The food is absolutely to die for. The service is brilliant, friendly and professional. This is our definitely our favourite place to go.

Went here today with my exercise class. We had hot drink and biscuits then a talk about floral media then a demonstration of a tied bouquet of flowers from the gardens where couples can have their wedding. Then a delicious buffet prepared by Steven plenty of choice and delicious A good outing and warm welcome from Paula and Steven.

This was a wonderful find and I have been back on a number of occasions. The food is amazing and the staff and atmosphere is brilliant. The sad note to this is that it is closing soon and we will be missing yet another excellent pub due to lack of custom. I’ll be very sad to see the end of yet another amazing establishment.

Enjoyed the food very nice could have done with more choices on the menu

Absolutely fantastic place to dine at. Food is great, staff are brilliant. It's definitely worth a visit.

We visit the Dovecote 3-4 times a year. The food is always exceptional and the service very attentive, our recent visit being no exception. My turkey dinner was really tasty, as was the festive creme brûlée and we were made to feel really welcome. Just wish we lived closer so we could visit more often!

What a great country pub, my mothers wake was here and the staff were brilliant plenty of buffet food. I certainly will go back for lunch and a drink.

Not sure what’s going on with this place, been shut for nearly a year, no communication from the owners or updates about an opening date. Very sad.

Had been meaning to give this place a go for weeks, as we constantly drove past the sign. Never got the opportunity for one reason or another. So we took a chance and gave it a whirl on a weekday. It was very nice, welcoming, etc, etc. However, the prices did seem way off the scale for what appeared when the order arrived. It was very expensive and not THAT good to be honest. You don't mind paying a premium when the quality is top notch, but this really wasn't. No better than what you would expect to find in a supermarket and twice the cost. We left bitterly disappointed and still a bit hungry.

Only stopped here for a drink but worth a mention because it is dog friendly. We were intrigued by the dogs painted on the bar but they turned out to be dog mats for visiting dogs. Clean and friendly place. The food looks very good too.

Used to be lovely pub. Gone downhill. Very basic inside Wouldn't go and eat there. Shame
