Had learned about this restaurant from a neighbour and we so came for a midweek dinner. The booking was easy and efficient, our welcome on the day was warm and... read more friendly. The dining room is very well presented and comfortable. Pre dinner drinks were served at our table (I don't think they have a bar area). Great dinner and drinks menus with sufficient choice at sensible prices for the venue. We both thoroughly enjoyed our menu choices and will certainly be visiting again - probably in the summer when we can also enjoy the garden terrace.

We had breakfast and an evening meal here and I would highly recommend visiting the restaurant, the quality of the produce was excellent and the meals delicious.

We will definitely be returning.
