Table booked for 7.15 but when we arrived they hadn’t got the booking even though I had an email and text message to remind us of the booking! Not impressed because I specifically requested a quiet table as one of our party has Alzheimer’s . They did find a table for the 4 of us eventually but not what we wanted. The table has been booked for weeks so why hadn’t they got the booking? However, our waitress was lovely and so was the food. I will not book through the online site again as can’t be certain it is actually booked even though I had an email confirming it.

We have driven past this restaurant many times and have only fairly recently tried it out. We were not disappointed. A lovely meal in a good location, particularly in the summer with the views.

A delightful pre- Christmas evening, even though super busy service was excellent. The food was well presented, beautifully cooked with good attention to detail. We chose from the main menu which contained dishes that were not the usual pub fare which was very refreshing.

Very good food and our table overlooking the gardens was charming My only reservation is that the welcome could be more inviting as we had to wait to be acknowledged even though there were staff especially bar staff around us Overall our dining experience was good, our waitress was excellent and friendly Would definitely go back Thank you

The Chicken Forestiere was awful, dry and really unedible but we were in a slight rush and was hungry. It seemed the best choice on the small menu. Chelsea our waitress went above and beyond to look after us. We tipped her well.

We all loved the new look of the swallows nest. Beautifully decorated giving it a lovely feel. The staff were great attentive but not intrusive. The food was delicious and really well presented. Lots of choice too. So good we are booking again for next month. Thank you.

I enjoyed the ambience and the prompt and friendly service ... and most of the food was good but the duck leg I was served was tough and dry - very disappointing.

Disappointing visit after hearing good things.Starter of dipping Camembert was £15.00 - came with 6 halves of bread and no chutney as advised. Had to ask for the chutney by which stage the cheese had gone hard - not a great start to the meal and definitely not worth the 1£15.00 paid. Beef dinner - Most of the beef had giant pieces of fat going through it. Trio of meat - pork was dry / beef fatty - chicken was nice. £80.00 for Sunday dinner, won't be returning any time soon.

As always the food, ambiance and staff at this cosy village restaurant were fabulous. We had a selection of meals all of which were well presented and tasted delicious. Selection of drinks and service with a smile made for an excellent night out. We shall be back again soon .

I went there last night with 10 others my sister her husband my nephews and nieces the food was lovely. The only thing I’d object to is that they add on a service charge which was quite a lot of money that’s the only thing I would say is bad

A lovely restaurant in a small rural village location. Staff always friendly and polite. Food was piping hot and there is a good selection. A little expensive but overall would recommend and return
