Had Sunday lunch. The waiting staff were attentive but not intrusive. The service was prompt with plenty of choice on the menu. The experience was enhanced with a quiet ambience.... especially with the real fires roaring. What better place could you spend a cold Sunday afternoon?

Lovely relaxing afternoon very friendly staff who efficiently served our afternoon tea - just one thought- we had cocktails rather than champagne and it would have been preferable to have those served before our tea and coffee.
