The Restaurant
Our main restaurant is modern with a lantern light ceiling which allows in plenty of natural light to flood in. A great piece of real architectural design. The restaurant boast some wonderful bespoke ironwork along with a vintage industrial feel . This restaurant offers a modern ambiance an ideal place to catch up with family and friends and enjoy our mouthwatering local dishes.

The Inn
The Inn is full of old world charm with little hidden nucks for dining. This restaurant is full of character and is used at lunch times primarily, but in the evenings, it offers a cosy ambiance lit by candle light ideal for a more casual approach to dining.

The Inn also offers an afternoon tea which is simply divine. Served between 2pm-5pm by prior bookings only.

The Bar and Snug is a relaxed and super cosy space sticking with the old charm of the Inn which this part of the building offers. It has an impressive wood burning stove and is dog friendly.

    The food here was fantastic. Every member of staff that interacted with us what professional but also friendly and conversational. Everyone made us, and our dogs, feel welcome. I can highly recommend the lamb Henry!

    Very helpful staff, tasty food, clean surroundings, no dogs (plus point for the friend with us allergic to dogs). Disappointing for myself that there isn't a less sweet dessert e.g plain fruit salad?

    The roast beef was absolutely awful my husband could hardly chew it and lots of fat. Shame as the rest of the stay was fab. He ate most of it as was starving but not good at all. My scampi was lovely though.
