Find this good restaurant beautifully-set in this comfortable country house hotel, partly dating back to the 16th century.
The restaurant itself is in an oak-panelled dining room, with a splendid Georgian ornate ceiling.
On the food front, a short menu of seasonal - largely local - produce is offered. An early summer snapshot of which offered 'Cream of Summer Vegetable Soup with Croûtons'; 'Warm Salad of Black Pudding with Chorizo Sausage, Soft-Boiled Egg & Balsamic Dressing'; Aynsome's Smoked Haddock & Salmon Fishcake with Dill Cucumber Linguine, Toasted Coconut & Lemon Beurre Blanc' and 'Timbale of Melon & Paw Paw in Minted Champagne Jelly with Mulberry Coulis & Candy Floss' amongst the starters.
'Carnaroli Risotto with Fresh Asparagus & Mushroom, Topped with Rocket Leaves'; 'Pan-Fried Tenderloin of Beef with Sweet Potato Ragout & Bordelaise Sauce'; 'Cinnamon Roast Norfolk Duck Breast with Apricot Fritters & Pink Grapefruit Reduction' and 'Seared Fillets of Red Snapper Cooked En-Papilotte with Thai Fragrant Prawns, Citrus & Vanilla Beurre Blanc' listed on the mains.
Desserts are served from a trolley.
