History

The restaurant, with its timber beams and log fires, once the home of an original 16th century forge, is renowned for its high standard of cuisine and service.   

Whatever your reasons for visiting us, be it an intimate meal for two, a special family gathering or a short break away, Philip and Nicky offer you a warm and professional welcome.

   

 

 

 

We have endeavored to create a menu that we hope will give all our guests a wide range of dishes to enjoy.   The traditional English/French cuisine is all freshly prepared and cooked to order, using only the finest ingredients, and wherever possible, locally grown produce.  

We excel in those special family occasions where quality of food and service is of utmost importance to our guests.  For example Silver and Ruby Wedding Anniversaries, retirement functions, special birthdays and small, intimate wedding breakfasts.   For more details, please contact Philip and Nicky as all parties are individually tailored to your needs. 

A small selection of dishes from our current menu are listed below for your information.
