The location is idyllic, the staff are friendly and the food is incredible! Can't wait to go back with friends! Very clean and nothing was too much for the girl who serves us. Met with the owner James Banks and he was a gentleman! Thanks for a lovely day and evening

We stayed overnight with my brother and his wife and decided to go for the taster menu. From the moment we arrived in the bar the service was excellent. Following a perusal of the menu, we were given the opportunity to change any of the courses we did not fancy. One course was adjusted with ease and the meal proceeded... More

Today was our second visit to the Black Swan, and again it was amazing! For a Michelin starred restaurant, the lunch deal is an excellent price - £25 for three courses......and whilst we went with very good intentions of sticking to that menu...we were swayed by the equally inviting a la carte menu and spent a fortune instead!!

We stayed for 2 nights . The rooms are very good with a great view from the door - they are separate to pub in a converted out building . We had the taster menu on the first night and a la carte the second . Both superb with excellent cheeseboard to finish. We had a lot of snow on... More

This place is really hard to find, tiny lanes find the little village where the pub is situated. We went for a meal but the missus did go through to the bar side and said it looked really good.
