So amazing went for a family do and the beauty of the place is evident as you arrive with love clean and kept grounds with beautiful view of the gardens, we come to the barn (or what looks like a barn) with massive window slide doors it's homely but feels high-end. Staff were brilliant and very friendly and the food omg I literally went to food heaven started with troovine chicken and ham hock was nice and different but then the main was a sea bream battered with a nice helping of chunky triple cooked chips with mushy peas.... Loved it so much I had to tell the waiter to pass on that it was the best fish and chips I've ever had! Not thinking that it can be topped they brought pud out oh my this was parkin cake with a dark toffee sauce with some ice cream that was on another level with a caramel snap. I couldn't fault it apart from there wasn't enough lol. Absolutely amazing place with amazing service. Rooms: 5 Service: 5 Location: 5
