"A modern country house restaurant with a comfy lounge that hints at the 20th century history of the Armstrong-Jones era. Fabulous cocktails! Unfortunately while being provided with a gun room menu we didn 't get to see it as we were part of four group 6pm sitting. We were guided to a small room, that may once have been a boot room, as it had a single door leading outside. Decor was gloomy. This room needs careful negotiation if you find three steps down difficult as the ironwork handrail is low. I couldn 't help my husband as I was left carrying the drinks glasses which the front of house member had not offered to carry and had no tray with her to do this. Not a relaxing start to the evening. Once seated in a low chair (another table occupant commented on the discomfort), we considered asking for cushions to sit on..but settled to enjoy our special meal. It was served in a friendly, yet professional manner by our waitress who 'saved the evening '. The food started well; the pre-starter and Asparagus were lovely. The main was disappointing, set aside the tough beef, the vegetable sides had obviously been forgotten and arrived after I reminded them and after the time they would have taken to plate up. The chips were solid, dark brown and gastro-pub style. We left them. It was good to hear that dietary considerations were well tended to for another table, as indeed ours had been. So five stars for this. Our meal slid to a halt with an adequate, but not sparkling, dessert choice. Coffee in the lounge was not an option for our sitting as the 8pm people were still in the lounge. When we saw coffee being served at an accompanying table (with that explanation) we chose to leave and go home to relax. The staff member on farewell-duty, was once again the lady in the black dress, who had shown us to our table. I was left to find my husband 's coat on the wooden hall stand... Maybe our experience was a one-off? It 's unlikely we will find out."

The food and atmosphere were both lovely. The tables were a bit close together, but I will definitely come back.

Well worth a visit and then personal choice regarding a re-visit. Personally I would have liked a choice of two or three courses

Unfortunately the atmosphere was a little flat and unwelcoming. However the food saved the night, even with part of our main meal arriving late.

My partner and I celebrated a birthday with a dinner for two at this restaurant. We had a fantastic experience. The staff were attentive but not overbearing, and the food was beautifully presented and tasted delicious.
User
Lovely experience. The pre dinner cocktail was presented beautifully. The dinner itself was delicious three chosen courses, with additional surprise courses in between. All in a beautiful location, with friendly staff.

Lovely food but experience dissapointing. Unclered tables and messy floors in toilet not what you expect from a 5* establishment. Had a Gunroom experience voucher as a birthday gift but unfortunately due to number of residents we were not seated in the Gunroom. View menu

Food was exceptional, staff very friendly, but the wait between courses was far too long. We had empty glasses in front of us in the lounge and nobody asked if we wanted a refill and this was before we went through for the meal. And i have never been asked what dessert i want when ordering starter and main before.

The food at this restaurant was fantastic, but we were slightly disappointed that we had to sit in the bar area for drinks before dinner instead of the more luxurious drawing room like the other guests. Despite this, the food was good value for the quality. We have paid more for a lower-grade dining experience in the past.
