    Great Sunday Lunch. Been a few times now and we’ll be back. Better than the Oakley Arms which is just down the road.

    My wife and I had a superb meal, celebrating her birthday. The food was sublime, service prompt and pleasant and the general ambience was lovely. We were so impressed that we booked in for Sunday lunch before we left. Highly recommend a visit to this lovely place.

    Beautiful building but unfortunately very cold. Staff weee unable to make a difference. Food was ok but as the venue was so cold the food went cold fast. Overall we were disappointed. Would definitely not return in winter. Perhaps when it’s warmer. We mentioned the temperature to multiple staff, we were told the heating was on but they couldn’t do anything more.
