We enjoyed afternoon tea at RH in the tea salon. Not only was the afternoon tea enjoyable but the impeccable service was excellent. We then enjoyed a very informative tour of the showrooms and learnt a bit of the history. I would highly recommend a visit to RH it’s an unforgettable 5* experience .

Amazing property where you really live a unique experience while going out for dinner.If you get their early, you can go through their beautiful furniture gallery.The menu is simple and everyone in our group loved what they ordered.We tried a few vegan and non-vegan options like a delicious hamburger made in a baguette and a coliflower steak.The creme brulee and the banana split deserts are definitely worth sharing.Service was friendly and very professional, great experience!

Lavish dining room in a 17th century stately home overlooking estate gardens. The restoration project is phenomenal, no expense spared & designed to show off the American brand’s furniture. The restaurant itself has an interesting mix of uncomplicated dishes on a short menu, made with the highest quality meat and fresh ingredients. We went for the avocado caviar starter, which is a signature dish and a showstopper, before sharing the roast chicken main. Everything was cooked and presented perfectly and the setting was incredible. Staff are knowledgeable, professional and serve to a 5-star standard.

Just stunning. Beautifully lit up and we were met by gentlemen holding umbrellas who escorted us to the entrance. The interior design ideas were stunning and beautifully displayed. Enjoyed tea in the Orangery served by a charming waitress. TQ for our visit.

This exclusive house, gardens and restaurant is worth more than a visit. The restaurant is a delight with a streamline menu. The food is first class quality as is the service. It is an experience with valet parking, a more than helpful welcome, courteous without being overwhelming. Ambiance superb for all occasions. As a critical eye I found little to fault it. Pricey but great value, one not to miss!

This place was definitely an experience. Yes it is a bit pricey- but you also have to consider the building and atmosphere you are getting to dine in. The food was delicious - and shareable (whole chicken, whole branzino, huge steak, do yourself a favor and try the Maitake mushroom as a side or main). Definitely a place to visit and take in the countryside - and RH style! I will definitely be coming back.

I've dined here twice and both times were excellent. Some early service kinks have all been sorted out and the service here is truly excellent -- not just the timelines and attentiveness but the pleasant attitude. Everyone throughout RH England are both helpful and just exceptionally friendly. Some of the best service I've had in the UK.The food is first rate -- I've had their steak and burger and tried several of their sides and salads. All outstanding. My wife had their Branzino and rated it top notch.The surroundings are stunning with beautiful grounds and a maze of rooms to explore. The estate includes a pizza oven restaurant, a wine bar, a tea room and a coffee/juice bar.We planned to come for lunch and ended browsing the rooms and the grounds and staying on for dinner. It's for a special day out.....Parking: Free valet service

We came here for our wedding anniversary and from the moment we arrived we were greeted warmly and had a wonderful experience. The setting is amazing and the food yummy. Of course it is pricy but worth every penny for a special occasion.

My husband surprised me with dinner at the Orangery to celebrate our anniversary. We’ve had our eye on the renovations for a few months now and were absolutely delighted with the opportunity to experience it. Dinner at the Orangery was just as much about the experience as it was the delicious food. We enjoyed a relaxing dinner with a beautiful view which included watching a herd of deer grazing just outside. Our server Miriam was very friendly and attentive and her food recommendations were perfect. We would go back!

The newly-opened RH England venue is completely unexpected, innovative and absolutely stunning. It's essentially a furniture store with restaurants, although that description doesn't do it justice. After a good look around the house (allow an hour) we ate in the Orangery. The menu is somewhat limited and lacked credible starter options (avocado with caviar at £55 doesn't fulfil my concept of credible!) but there is just about enough choice to satisfy most people including vegetarians. Recommend checking the menu online if you are not sure it will suit. The wine list was OK with the (generous) glass list at around £9-12 from memory. For mains I had a whole branzino with truffle fries and my wife an innovative and delicious mushroom vegetarian dish. Butterscotch creme caramel dessert was to die for and the banana split would have served two. With 12.5% service the overall bill was around £140, a little on the high side but this isn't a place where you go for bargain basement anything! Saving the best until last, the service was amazing and as good as I've had in any upmarket restaurant anywhere in the world. Well done!

Beautiful venue and excellent service, the staff were friendly, helpful and attentive. Sadly the food in the Orangery was incredibly over priced and mediocre. Salad starters, burgers in a ciabatta roll with a handful of rocket, side of roasted peppers, Creme brûlée and soft drinks - £100 per head.
