We had planned a lovely birthday meal for my mum, who had been talking about wanting to visit for a while. Food was delicious and interior was cosy, however we felt that there was a lack of explanation of the dishes when brought to the table and when asked politely our waitress was a little bit abrupt/not that interested to explain the dish?s. There was a lack of table maintenance and there were serval times we had to get up to approach the waitress to ask for more drinks or to simply clear empty glasses from our table.It was a bit of a shame as we felt that this ruined our experience.Unfortunately due to this experience we would not consider attending again.

We stayed here for 2 nights & it was magical from start to finish.They warn you not to trust the sat nav directions; I can vouch for this unless you want to drive down loads of country lanes, wide enough for just one car & zero passing places! So, please use the directions given on their website, unlike us!On arrival, you are greeted by the friendly staff & shown to your room. We stayed in one of the new rooms, a converted grain store.Lovely huge bathroom & roll top bath plus a walk-in rainforest shower.Comfy but pretty firm super-kingsize bed with quality bedding.They even provide an umbrella & 2 walking poles for anyone who needs such things.NB This is an idyllic rural retreat & there was no TV in our room (presume this is the same throughout.) The guest WIFi is free but can be sluggish if using more than one device.There is a honesty bar in the main farmhouse with a large selection of home-made gins including honeysuckle & Earl Grey.You are free to roam around the farm, seeing the animals & beautiful trees. The ducks & pigs were especially friendly.Your stay includes breakfast. You get home-made yoghurt, fruits, hand-churned Guernsey butter; sublime toasted maltloaf; honey made from the resident bees; home-made jam & fresh juices plus tea & coffee. The hot dishes will again be centred around the farm's produce. We had hogs pudding with home-made tomato sauce then creamed leeks & bacon topped with poached eggs. All served with the phenomenal sour dough bread , freshly made by their bakers each morning.If you want to eat dinner there you have 2 options.Firstly the tasting menu (they also offer a vegetarian version) which costs £80 each not including any drinks, other than table water.If staying more than one night, you probably won't want the same tasting menu again - we opted for a 2 course lighter dinner for £35. Please see my attached photos for the dishes we enjoyed. Everything was so flavoursome & Chef du Patron Tom & his staff were very friendly & happy to explain all ingredients used in the dishes.Anyone with food allergies will be catered for, provided that sufficient advance warning has been given.There is an on-site farm shop where you can buy farm / bakery produce plus items such as ceramic bowls & blankets from other local retailers. They also have an outside seating area & you can have light bites & drinks.All in all, a tranquil, comfy haven for food & animal lovers.Can't wait to return.**July 2022 update** - we went back for a lunch event & then stayed in Room 7 opposite the bakery. This is slightly bigger than our previous Room 6 & the huge, deep stand-alone cast iron bath was great. It also had a great rain shower / wall mounted shower spray.Food was as lovely as before as were the staff.**Nov 2023 update** The cafe is currently not open & the breakfast is now a self-service buffet style. The latter still offers lovely home made pastries (sweet & savoury,) jams, muesli, bread etc plus ham & cheeses.If no-one is manning the shop, then there are honesty sheets upon which you write your taken items & either add them to your room bill / pay in the restaurant.

Great locally sourced food, well cooked and presented. The menu changes and is small which I find a blessing, great wine list.We just had dinner in the restaurant, a little tricky to find in the dark ! But worth

We had an incredible two night stay here to celebrate a big birthday. The rooms, the food and the walks around the farm were all superb.

Went for dinner with a large group and we were very nicely looked after. The food was delicious, especially the roasted chicken and the veg which were outstanding. Well worth a visit.

Coombeshead Farm is the perfect example of ?less is more?. We booked a one night stay as a stopover before heading down the Cornish Coast. From the moment arrive, the very hospitable team make you feel at home; from being greeted in the car park, to freshly baked arrival cookies and home brewed sloe gin in the room. We stayed in the grain store; the room was very spacious, with lots of character & immaculate. The food. No words! All local produce, most of which has zero food miles. Both dinner and breakfast were exceptional, as was the service. An amazing start to our Cornish getaway, we left feeling relaxed, rejuvenated & with well fed stomachs! Thank you; I?m sure we?ll be returning in the future.

We were looking forward to our dinner at Coombeshead Farm but we came away disappointed and feeling that we paid over the odds. My small ham hock starter had virtually no meat once the jelly and large garlic bulb were discounted. In a way that didn't matter asWe then waited for an hour and twenty minutes before the main course arrived. By this time we would have had to leave the premises if the restaurant imposed the two hour table time limit they quoted with our booking. The chicken was tasty but it was served with a large plate of lettuce leaves drenched in vinaigrette and some boiled red cabbage. I couldn't help feeling we were being taken advantage of, especially as, being a set meal, we had no choice. The kitchen should also have a pretty accurate idea of timings as they would know exactly what we were going to eat. At this stage we were starting to feel that, for the same money, we could have done a great deal better cooking at home. After another wait, the dessert was tasty but a very small portion size. Those serving were friendly but service itself was very slow. Unfortunately, all of our group agreed it had been an underwhelming and frustrating evening.

Lovely farmhouse vibe experience, restaurant in what looked like a converted barn, with gorgeous thick wooden tables and sheep skin rugs strewn on chairs! Very elegant plating, interesting and creative dishes and tastes. The pate starter and sliced ham were yum. Chicken pie for main was so comforting and tasty - with perfect crust! Service friendly and attentive. Set within an estate where you can walk in the woods, visit the animals, beehives, pond after your meal. The only downside for us, was a little too much cabbage with everything AND portion of the chicken pie to share was on the small side? but otherwise a perfect Sunday lunch!

Words cannot Express how wonderful the weekend was - ambience, food, service, walks even though it rained.

Coombeshead will always hold a special place in our ?! Visited several times to stay and have dinner - its a super relaxing experience and the staff can't do enough to make your stay fab. It feels more like staying in someone's country far house than a hotel, its also great place to meet interesting folks.What really stands out however is the staffs passion for the ethos of the place! The food is awesome, clean, creatively simple and sympathetic to the (hyper local) ingredients!We loved it so much we decided to get married there and the experience was absolutely magical!! Keep up the good work Tom and team
