"Amazing Gluten Free dining experience. Attended a wedding here. Venue was decorated for Christmas and looked lovely. Service was excellent and the quality of food impressive. Great gluten free dining experience. Having been gluten free for less than a year it is so unusual to find dining where I am not fed something completely different. Highly recommended...." Read more

A special shout out to Toby and the whole team who worked so hard all day and evening. Also, we were fortunate to have been gifted a stay in the Shepherd’s Hut and it was an absolute dream...."

"Stunning venue and the best food I've ever had at a wedding, delicious. Bar staff could have been a little more attentive although I guess a wedding day is long and everyone deserves a break. Fab day"
