They serve a great smoked salmon sandwich accompanied with crisps & salad. The atmosphere is calming and the background piano music reassuring without being too loud. The staff are friendly, professional & accommodating. The hotel is full of Beale family history told thru photos & portraits. Also the hotel is set in lovely grounds with well cared for plants, trees & flowers.

The hotel is very tastefully decorated but the food wasn't very good. They only had 3 choices of starters, we tried 2 out of the 3 and we didn't like either of them.Parking: There is a large car park at this hotel.Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp outside this hotel and a ramp inside as well.

As always a super Sunday lunch. Made extra special by the staff who realised it was our daughters birthday. Thank you.

Went for brunch with friends food took ages to come and it really was NOT worth the money. Bacon ciabatta with lettuce...lol ? hot lettuce. One thin slice of bacon and 2 pieces of lettuce. Bloody joke for £10.95We were all disappointed with out food hence never going back. Oh and its not the first time we have visited. Decided best to go elsewhere. Shame. Can't get their act together.

Excellent food and service. Buffet breakfast, bar food most of the day, and a separate restaurant..

I would like to formally file a complaint against this restaurant.The manager who was on duty on 24/10/2023 at 12:30 was disrespectful and arrogant. He refused to allow us to sit in the main restaurant area on three times and insisted that we sit in the coffee/bar area, even though 90% of the tables in the main restaurant area were unoccupied.I specifically requested a table in the main restaurant area, not the coffee/bar area, but he provided numerous excuses and continued to insist on seating us in the coffee/bar area.On the third time, I made an online reservation right in front of him, as his last excuse was that we had to book a table through the online system. He claimed that he couldn't arrange a table in the restaurant area without an ONLINE BOOKING.Subsequently, the manager told me that we could sit in the bar area and that he would attempt to change our table from the coffee/bar area to the restaurant area since someone had just made a restaurant reservation before us.I hope this restaurant can find a more competent and accommodating manager. Don't waste your time here.

Went for a Sunday roast. Food was shockingly bad. Roast potatoes were rock solid as was the one parsnip served. The lamb and Yorkshire pudding were okay. But for the price, it is simply terrible. The dessert was perhaps even worse. The raspberry macaron was more like a stale meringue. I could have broken my teeth on it. The portion size was tiny and it simply had a few raspberries and whipping cream. So very disappointed. Service was far too slow, and at points verging on rude. The atmosphere eas not bad but a little jaded. It could really do with an upgrade.

Beautiful place, loads of food, very tasty vegan options. Staff very kind and sweet. Highly recommend! Make sure you will take both vegan and standard option as selection of sandwiches and cakes is different.

Whilst we had a lovely meal, the service wasn't great. The service was fine initially as we were 1 of only a couple of tables. Once the restaurant was full, service was very poor. Menu choice not huge. No kids menu to view, just given a verbal list of what was on offer. Could be much better.
