The Experience
From Michelin Guide
A lovingly restored Georgian building is the setting for this charming restaurant. You enter via the back of the building, through an illuminated garden, and are then warmly welcomed into a beautiful dining room, where the lovely handmade tables have the menu and cutlery hidden in a drawer. The finest produce, be it lobster or quail, is delivered via a skilfully prepared tasting menu, where deep flavours come together perfectly and there's the odd playful touch, like dessert served across several dishes to share. Three restful bedrooms provide the perfect overnight escape.
