Visited on a Sunday; early afternoon. Not having visited before we found the hotel to be fairly quiet, but the upstairs restaurant had a pleasant atmosphere; the staff were very friendly, and the service was attentive, efficient and informal. We often find that restaurants are rarely able to produce three courses that are, in our opinion, all excellent. Often you leave feeling that one or other of the starter, main or desert courses ‘didn’t match the taste and standard of the other courses’. However, we found all three courses to be excellent. (Pumpkin hummus starter; steak and pork chop mains; chocolate and pear tart deserts). The food and flavours were as good as any of the ‘gastro pubs’ we have visited in the last year, including AA rosette and Michelin listed restaurants. The wine prices were as expected and the 2018 Rioja we had was delightful. The hotel is in a very pleasant setting being at the end of a quiet lane and next to a river and ford. We wouldn’t hesitate to visit again.
