“Lovely rooms with mini patio areas which was good in the nice weather and to be able to get drinks from the bar and take them to your own space. Anything missing from the room or not right was corrected immediately we asked. The food was absolutely fantastic and the gluten free options the best we've found almost anywhere we've been. We would heartily recommend.”

“It was our first time visiting and we were so impressed. The menu offered an excellent selection of dishes, and the food was absolutely delicious. The restaurant is in a wonderful location with a lovely, welcoming atmosphere that made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. A special mention has to go to Donna and Emily, who did an incredible job running the restaurant between just the two of them during what was clearly a difficult shift due to being short staffed. Despite the pressure, they remained friendly, attentive, and professional throughout. Their hard work and positive attitude made our experience even more enjoyable. We will definitely be returning and would highly recommend this restaurant to others.”
