A nice atmosphere and decor, tables were well set out with ample space around. Food was tasty; the black pudding scotch egg was nicely cooked, with a runny yolk. The mushroom risotto was perfect albeit a little expensive - probably due to the truffle. Partner ate from the set menu, which was exceptionally good value. I would definitely return if eating in the area again.

We had a wonderful night at Lakehouse and were so well looked after. The food was excellent and great value. The menu is full of delicious dishes so we found it difficult to choose but were really happy with what we ordered and vow to go back to try the rest! The chicken with mini dumplings was particularly good, as many people have said, as was the pancake and cheese bites. The grilled mixed vegetables were great too and all the sauces that went with everything were superb. We really couldn’t fault it. Thank you, we will be back.
