Great service, would have liked to have seen stronger GF options but the chef went above and beyond to adapt a recipe for me which was fantastic, we will return

Last minute booking as passing by but very glad we did. The food was amazing value for money at such high quality. Simple menu but presented wonderfully. I have had afternoon tea there previously which was equally exceptional but pleased to say the rest of menu just as good. Can’t wait to return next time in Cumbria : )
