    We felt that the service was a bit haphazard. Our main course arrived while we were still finishing our nibbles. Although the staff were friendly and polite they didn't seem very organised. The food was also a bit disappointing and not exactly what was on the menu. Salad instead of samphire with the fish pie which was more like a salmon pie - very little other fish and no prawns. Quite pricey for ordinary standard food

    We had a really nice meal, served by a wonderful host. It was a shame we were the only people in for a while, added to during the meal as a few came to the bar for a pint or two, so ambiance a little lacking. Timing, we guess, as it was a late lunch. Won’t put us off going back as it’s always welcoming and food never disappoints so either later this holiday or next time we’re up, for sure.
