"After being recommended to us, we booked for Sunday lunch with friends whilst staying locally at a nearby caravan site. First we were ushered quickly to our table and told that someone would take our drinks order when were seated, this would you be bad but none of knew what beers and ciders they actually sold. Once seated we waited 10 mins for a young inexperienced waitress to take our drink order. Unfortunately she didn't know what they sold either so we opted for the normal boring lager to make life easy (even the real ale drinkers did this). Each drink was delivered individually with quite some time between them then one drink didn't arrive so a trip to the bar was needed to ask where it was ! Once perusing the nice looking menu was over, our oder was taken. We never waited long for our starters and we all agreed that they were lovely and very tasty. This in mind, we were all looking forward to our roast dinners. This is where it all changed....we were not informed that the beef was served rare and had I have been a vet I suspect I could have got the breathing again!! I could have managed rare as a one off if it were succulent and not like chewing on an old leather boot. Others in the group had turkey which was fine however the sausage wrapped in bacon was putrid and tasted off. We were served vegetables in a deep bowl wih various veg in. Unfortunately we didn't know what was in there until we dug to the bottom. As it happened the veg on top we didn't like so we asked for the bowl to be taken back and presented in a more appropriate way. It came back in a flat server still mixed up ! One small boat of gravy was presented between 6 of us (all gravy lovers) so much of our time was spent asking for more or asking for better presented veg. I felt sorry for the waitress but I suspect it was a lack of training from management which made the poor girl look Inadequate at her job. The landlady attempted to be polite but was clearly disgruntled by us sending the veg back and requesting more gravy. We will not be returning and wish we had stayed on site for Sunday lunch in the clubhouse!"
