    Excellent food and service in a beautiful setting. A bit pricy but not over the top. Definitely worth a visit.

    We had high expectations for lunch but unfortunately it was really disappointing. The risotto was dry, overcooked and looked like it had been cooked the day before. For the price, the 3 pieces of lamb saddle were pathetic as well as overcooked. Two positives are that our waiter Hilary was great and the Rose superb.
