Barn Restaurant

Restaurant

With its original wooden beams and wrought ironwork, our Barn Restaurant showcases the history of the original building. It’s a lovely rustic setting for a mouth-watering evening meal or leisurely buffet breakfast. Our adventurous menus change monthly but expect the likes of braised beef steak with mashed potato and red wine and thyme gravy, and grilled seabass with new potatoes and a lemon butter sauce. All our dishes are lovingly created with seasonal ingredients where possible and can be complemented by a selection from our wine list. On a balmy summer’s evening, dine al fresco in the courtyard in the shade of our parasol tables.
