“Real foodies paradise”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 6, 2013 via mobile

Ate here over new year and has the pleasure of doing so on New Year's Eve. We ate at a 3 Michelin star establishment last new year so we thought we'd take the risk and slum it, sluming it being the complete opposite of what we received, a taster menu that was absolutely first class and much better than what weve eaten, my partner is a chef and he was blew away, in his words the chef here has some talent. Could not find faults here, we didn't stay he overnight but plan to in the future. Service at time was slow and with not as passionate as the food but what a place to visit if your in the area. A really foodies retreat.

“Fabulous food, friendly people”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 3, 2013

Ate here on 4 consecutive evenings over the New Year period. Food was consistently excellent, with choices ranging from burger (with fantastic Welsh rarebit topping) to glorious roasted butternut squash and red pepper risotto with goat's cheese. 5 course taster menu on New Year's Eve was absolutely first rate, better than many meals I have paid more for; especially liked the halibut! Atmosphere was cosy and friendly, with professional but also very welcoming staff. Nothing not to like!
Did not stay over so cannot comment on the accommodation.

“Wonderful food great atmosphere”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 27, 2012 via mobile

We live locally so have been past loads of times but never been in. Well I'm glad we have now. Hands down the best food in the area. We have a 6 week old baby girl so having a meal isn't always the easiest thing in the world but the staff could not have been more accommodating. We will definitely be returning and we have already told our friends how wonderful it is.

“Excellent food, great atmosphere, very welcoming.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 13, 2012

Visited here on Saturday night for a fabulous meal. A very warm welcome with the roaring log fire and a busy but not overcrowded restaurant. The spicy aroma of the glühwein as you entered the bar was too much to resist and a warming start to the evening. Service, though not fast was "just right", very attentive but not obtrusive. Eyeing other people's dishes being delivered made the menu choice very difficult as everything was so well presented. We started with a pave of duck confit and the scallops. Both dishes very tasty and decorative without being flashy. Main course was lamb shanks for myself and duck breast for my partner. Again, presentation, vegetable selection, meat quality and overall tastiness of the meal were worth far in excess of the £22.95 for two courses that you pay. Would highly recommend this inn for a cosy meal, or just a hearty fill up after a day on the mountains. The clientele were a mix of outdoors people just off the hills, we ourselves had been mountain biking all day, as well as couples having a romantic meal. Will be visiting again soon.

“A Hidden Gem”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 9, 2012

Well worth a visit to this roadside hotel. All rooms have been recently refurbished, and our room at the back of the hotel was a stunner. Three separate spaces (rooms), bedroom, lounge and bathroom made up this suite with two Televisions and a couch to lounge on. The food was superb throughout our stay with Chef Simon Hough outdoing himself to present beautiful meals. Simon was off duty one evening and his assistant also presented a wonderful meal. Girl friday, Simona was a joy.

Well placed for sightseeing and hill walking, you need to check availability, especially at weekends.

Room Tip: Rooms at the back are quieter, away from the road which is busy in the summer months.
