    We had a lovely meal after visiting the house to see the Christmas decorations. The turkey dinner was so moist and the roasted veggies were amazing, followed by a Christmas pudding what’s not to like. The staff were all so friendly and attentive. Make sure you book in advance so you get the less crowded upstairs.

    Second time visiting and unfortunately not quite up to standard as our first visit. We had to send 3 pieces of cutelry back for being dirty. We waited 45 minutes for our food to arrive and then had to send it back as the beef was extremely underdone. It was swopped quickly and in all fairness it was delicious in the end. Also had to wait quite a while between asking for the bill and it arriving. Just disappointing as our first visit was exceptional.

We’re glad the meal was delicious in the end, but we hope to provide you with a seamless and exceptional experience next time.
