   Good menu variety and excellent service by the staff. All rather let down by a few small, careless elements. “Hand cut” chips are a great idea rather than oven chips….but not when they are served dark brown, luke warm and soggy. The cooked breakfasts were served on stone cold plates … so the food got cold. And UHT milk cartons served with breakfast tea and coffee??? Simple things but perhaps show control in the kitchen is not quite what it should be

   Beautiful venue but food and service wasn't great, fish came out burnt however starter was lovely. Service at breakfast was poor and poached eggs were more like boiled eggs

   The table had dirty dried food on which was off putting as had been all set out so had to wipe clean. Not sure how they set up a dirty table.. Food and service was fabulous though. Would go back and ensure table was cleaned before we sat down.

   We were slightly disappointed initially that only the Sunday lunch menu was available, and not the a la carte (as this was our first visit and we were keen to try the menu), but we all found very acceptable choices on there nonetheless. The food was well presented, tasty and the portions were substantial - so much so that we had no room left for dessert! Excellent value for money at just £16.95 for 2 courses. The bottle of wine we selected was also very good, although the waiting staff did not seem au fait with normal practice for serving it - is it a rare occurrence that patrons order wine by the bottle?! There were almost no other diners as we opted for a late lunch (2.30pm). In this setting I found the music perhaps just a tiny shade too loud, but not objectionable (70s/80s pop). Overall a very good experience, and we will certainly be back on another occasion to try the standard menu.

    Really nice place. Shame it was not full. Ambiance would be better. This place has really good potential given the right management. We would be back
