Their restaurant features modern British cuisine and uses only the best locally sourced produce, sometimes also from the kitchen garden, while tender lamb and beef comes from Longwitton Farm nearby.

The rich chocolate tart with summer berry compote is a fine way to conclude and the knowledgeable staff members are ever present to help you in choosing the right tipple from their extensive wine cellar.
