The food was excellent, all fresh, homemade and very well cooked and presented. The service by all the very efficient staff was spot on; nothing was too much trouble for them. All our food arrived together for the four of us. We all thoroughly enjoyed our food, and if there is a list for next Christmas lunch, then we will be at the top of the list. All together a brilliant day!
