We are now closed until the current lockdown period comes to an end. We are able to provide overnight accommodation in a small number of circumstances, in accordance with government guidance which is as follows:

“You are allowed to stay overnight away from your home if you:

– are unable to return to your main residence

– need accommodation while moving house

– need accommodation to attend a funeral or related commemorative event

– require accommodation for work purposes or to provide voluntary services

– are a child requiring accommodation for school or care

– are homeless, seeking asylum or a vulnerable person seeking refuge

– are an elite athlete or their support staff or parent, if the athlete is under 18.”

If you wish to enquire about accommodation in one of the circumstances listed above, please contact us on 07926 063885. Otherwise, we look forward to welcoming you once again when it’s safe and legal to do so. Take care of yourselves and each other and stay safe.

We’re ready to go! We’ll be opening the doors at midday today and are looking forward to welcoming guests once again. Please take note of the safety information around the building and help us to keep everyone safe.

We’re now taking bookings for our restaurant and tomorrow we’ll be cooking Sunday lunch once again – £10 per person.

It’s good to be back.

We are delighted to announce that we will be re-opening on Saturday 4th July at midday. We want all our guests and staff to feel as safe as possible when visiting us so there will be a number of safety measures in place.

• All visitors will have their temperature checked on arrival.
• We will ask everyone to provide contact details on arrival which will be held for 21 days.
• The restaurant and coffee shop have fewer tables than normal in order to enable social distancing.
• All guests will be asked to be seated, rather than standing at the bar.
• Staff will wear protective visor / mask / gloves as appropriate.
• An enhanced cleaning regime is in place.

A link to our full Covid-19 risk assessment is available for anyone to read (see Covid-19 Safety Measures) and guests are very welcome to contact us with any queries.

We are busy preparing for the time when it’s safe to re-open. Over the last few months we have made some changes to the building, so we now have 3 new bedrooms available to our guests, including a Garden Suite – pictures to follow soon. The rest of the building has been redecorated and we are putting in place a range of measures to keep our guests and our staff safe. We look forward to welcoming you again as soon as it’s safe to do so.

We have 4 courtyard rooms were you would not come into contact with people if you are travelling on the A66 and need emergency accommodation for a night during the virus close down.

Please telephone 07926063885

We are now closed following the government announcement on 20th March for all food and drink until further announcements.
