   We had a lovely meal after visiting the house to see the Christmas decorations. The turkey dinner was so moist and the roasted veggies were amazing, followed by a Christmas pudding what’s not to like. The staff were all so friendly and attentive. Make sure you book in advance so you get the less crowded upstairs.

   Second time visiting and unfortunately not quite up to standard as our first visit. We had to send 3 pieces of cutelry back for being dirty. We waited 45 minutes for our food to arrive and then had to send it back as the beef was extremely underdone. It was swopped quickly and in all fairness it was delicious in the end. Also had to wait quite a while between asking for the bill and it arriving. Just disappointing as our first visit was exceptional.

   We enjoyed an excellent lunch of cottage pie and Doddington burger. Both dishes were accompanied by generous portions of kitchen garden vegetables/salad and were delicious. Glasses of Sangiovese were a very good match for the food. Too full to have a dessert, we opted for a coffee and mince pie. It is well worth reserving a table in the restaurant. Although there is inevitably some noise from the cafe below, this was not intrusive. Views of the lake and beyond to open countryside provide a very pleasant backdrop to any meal. Service was both friendly and efficient.

    A smart, but relaxed venue. The Roast Beef was incredible, melt in the mouth, served with a decent amount of veg and a delicious gravy. Possibly the best restaurant roast dinner I've ever had! My wife enjoyed a vegetarian risotto, also cooked perfectly, followed by a simply fabulous Treacle tart. We will definitely be revisiting!
