Waterdine, The Description

The Waterdine is a pretty white timber-fronted country pub, on the Shropshire-Welsh border. Vegetables often come from the Waterdine's own garden, and any other ingredients are locally sourced.

Diners may start with breast of squab pigeon on parsley risotto with sweet and sour beetroot sauce; terrine of Gloucester Old Spot pork with black fig and raspberry chutney; wild mushrooms and baby vegetable ragoüt; or fillet of dover sole stuffed with lightly wood smoked salmon on crayfish sauce.

Main courses include roast fillet turbot on leek confit with griolle mushrooms; rack of Shropshire lamb with couscous and provençal vegetables; tenderloin of Berkshire pork wrapped in Parma ham roasted on sage, with mustard mash braised carrots sliced beans and black pudding sauce; fillet of local beef pan fried in butter on potato rosti and spinach with Dijon mustard sauce.

Desserts are worth keeping a crevice for: chocolate mousse with raspberries and shortbreads; trio of black cherry puddings; crisp lemon curd tart; or iced apricot parfait.

There is also an impressive lunch menu. You may be grateful to know that rooms are also available.

Your Reviews of Waterdine, The

Andy (28 February 2009)

It’s superlative - as always.

Tass Patsalides (9 August 2004)

Arrived after a long journey from Suffolk to be met at the door by a very helpful and personable member of staff. This was very much the tone of the whole weekend.

The Waterdine is a comfortable inn set on the banks of the Teme and has breathtaking views across the surrounding hills. Whilst not 4* it is comfy and clean and offers a great way to de-stress. You can sit in the garden and listen to the burbling of the river or explore some of the amazing walks.

In the evening the restaurant has a great wine list and we were very impressed by the cooking of Ken Adams and his young protégé Tom Kinghorn (a name to remember for the future). The food was excellent, produce well sourced and well served.

Do visit the Waterdine you will not regret it; I'm certainly going back soon.

Oh and I forgot to mention that the breakfasts here are the best I have ever had. Where else do you get Omelette Arnold Bennett?
