   We have had a few meals at the Cartford Inn and the food is always great. The restaurant and bar area are very nice and the service was excellent. I would recommend it for a meal or a drink.

   I have stayed at the Cartford and eaten there many times but many years ago. I have to say that it didn't disappoint on Sunday. Myself and my family had a fantastic lunch, food amazing and staff super friendly. I would recommend to all.

   Absolutely loved our early Mothers Day Meal today. The food was really good. Staff were attentive without feeling constantly present. I felt it was good value for the standard of the food.

   This used to be our favourite place , great food ,waiters and waitresses well trained explained about the food , spoke very well. It stood out , now the place seems to be like all the other places trying to do to much. We came for birthday just the 2 of us got sat next to the door and directly behind where a buddy holly lookalike started playing guitar so speakers right behind us. We ordered 2 appetisers one was cheese croquet thing covers in Parmazan very thick gooey needed some sort of a sauce , mayo to dip really , looked really nice though and well presented , then we had like a corn beef fritter with sour crout tasted alot better , I then asked for some olives and they were great very tasty big we both enjoyed. We then waited about half n hr for the mains and the music came on which was too loud when your sitting right next to the speaker .. when the main was on its way we asked to sit on n another table which was fine , I had the suet pudding which has been on the menu for years, very nice , my partner had the pork chop, it was covered in a sauce and had a warm baby gem lettuce with what was like polenta.. but too much faff trying to hard just wanted chop n mash really. The food is nice chef is good and stuff is locally sourced it’s just all the other stuff that goes with it.. too much art being sold on the walls, farm shop, jewellery making , Easter eggs, posh lodges. It used to be a little gem great food.. totally understand they have done well and expanded the place but too much for us now. It’s lost its charm. Cost us just over 100 for the above with 3 drinks so not too over priced but they do have extra charge added to bill which a lot of places have nowadays. If you go for first time you will probabaly like it and the food.. sorry to moan and apologies to cartford, we are from Blackpool so 15 mins drive used to love going for a walk and coming here for food. All the best

    Lovely food, great atmosphere, staff very friendly. Good to be able to chose between child free and child friendly dining areas Jean very accommodating with booking requirements and last minute changes. Have had midweek dining and Sunday lunch and would recommend it all… Very easy to see why this inn won Inn of the year…
