    An amazing place to dine and stay overnight. The beautiful countryside views from our room watching the sunrise are wonderful. Dining here is amazing, a super a la carte menu and bar menu too. I'd recommend staying here. Super staff, very welcoming, helpful and friendly, thank you for making our romantic stay one to remember. 😁👍

    We loved it. Really delicious and interesting food but not over complicated. Superb apple tart tartin to finish which was enough to feed four but we did our best between the two of us. Great value.
