As a regular Swan diner each visit is a pleasurable experience and this was exemplary. Table service was truly attentive without being obtrusive and the meals arrived hot and in a timely manner. Well done!

Enjoyed a very pleasant afternoon at The Holt, afternoon tea was lovely, nice atmosphere and decorated with Christmas tress and a lovely fire. Nice to have warm scones as some places do not do this, and nice sandwiches and cakes. We needed to do a last minute change with the sandwich's from their menu, and the were very obliging to do so.
