Our menus are rich in game and seafood working with small farms and local suppliers, our chefs cook inspired and relaxed versions of traditional British classics that reflect the flavours and ingredients of each season.

We have an extensive wine list and a fine selection of imported drafts and local beers. Enjoy your taste of the countryside in our rustic restaurant or al fresco in our elegant Victorian tiered garden.
