We went here for Sunday lunch yesterday (Mother's Day) with several members of our family who had travelled from as far away as North Yorkshire. The food was very good, served hot, and had decent-sized servings on everyone's plate. The dining room had a lovely open fire, and the ambiance was chilled and calm. The bar and waiting staff were very good, attentive but not intrusive and all in all, it was a very pleasant experience.Food & drinks: A good selection of food and drinks is available, with something to satisfy everyone's tastes.

We visited in our motorhome and were allowed to stay overnight after eating here. In days when 5 stars seems to be the norm this place REALLY does deserve 5 stars. The owner was an excellent host. The food was amazing. I had the chicken with leek and Stilton sauce. The chicken and vegetables were all cooked spot on and the sauce was outstanding.

Ate here last night, party of 6 and the food was fantastic. We all had the Christmas menu and pre ordered our three courses. Starters were good, decent portions, main course presented beautifully and so tasty on a lovely hot plate. Desserts were gorgeous. The Christmas decor was very festive, the service from staff was brilliant - we thoroughly enjoyed our evening. Would definitely recommend a visit.

Wonderful Christmas Lunch today. Food was delicious & perfect value for money. The venue was beautifully decorated too. Thank you to staff for making our visit so special. If you haven't been here before you will not be disappointed.

No lighting outside so you can't see where you are going. We waited 30 minutes for drinks to arrive and 50 minutes for food. Very very slow service. There was only 2 other couples in so they were not busy. When notified them of my fish allergy told that they actually cooked and fried food such as chips in the same oil as the fish as they don't have separate fryers - that is totally unacceptable!!. Wine we wanted and menu item we wanted were not available. No atmosphere, initially had nice background music but stopped and not restarted. Used glasses not cleared from the table. Ordered a ribeye steak medium rare that came tough and overcooked and looked grey. My friends food wasn't very hot. My desert of ice cream with hot expresso was terrible. Chef/owner came out when I asked to see him in filthy trainers, shorts and tshirt. To be fair he took the bottle of wine and my dinner off the bill but it was a very disappointing experience.

We spent the night here on November 9th. The room was lovely. Very warm and cosy with a lovely spacious bathroom. It had an external entrance through patio doors which meant it was idea for us to take our dogs. We had dinner at the bistro. The food was excellent and the service was warm and friendly. There is a ruined castle on site which was of great interest to us and made this location even more interesting. Breakfast was cooked to order in the morning by the owner who chatted to us while we ate. A very friendly and entertaining character! All in all a very lovely stay. Would definitely recommend. The only downside was that the WiFi connection was a bit erratic but that?s a minor thing. We will definitely visit again.

First time visit to catch up with friends we were welcomed from the moment we arrived. Check in was easy and our room was one of the best we?ve stayed in , warm and welcoming. We had an evening meal 6 of us and it was so great to be treated like valued customers , all our meals arrived together and were all delicious . Breakfast was also fabulous. We just want to shout out a big thank you to all the staff for making our stay relaxing and fun . What a great team you all are , nothing was to much trouble thank you again we will be back

Visited for a quick drink whilst passing through with work. Pleasant enough but the manager was hard work... having it out with a customer who wasn't happy was embarrassing to watch. (You can see her attitude 1st hand just by reading her scathing responses to apparently genuine customer reviews on here. Oh Carol, Google says 3 stars means "ok". How can you expect people to rate you any more than ok with the way you speak and reply to your customers?PS I wonder how long it will take you to have a go at me in your reply...!
