We decided last minute to try the tasting menu on a Friday night and ended up staying overnight as we couldn't arrange for a taxi home. The tables were well spaced and it was easy to maintain social distance. The tasting menu was a great value and every course was delicious. The duck with cherry was a standout, but all dishes were well executed. The room was comfortable and we really enjoyed our stay. We love this place and try to visit whenever we are in the area. The service is old school and the food standards are high, which can be hard to find in this location. The breakfast was also excellent. Afterward, we took a leisurely walk around the gardens, which were full of growth and buzzing...
I went with three business guests to give this experience one more try. The meal was a disaster again, I don't know where to start really. I will say this. Why does a restaurant priding itself on its own veg and growing wonderful produce on site not then serve bowls of wonderfully prepared and creatively show-cased homegrown vegetables? Two of my guests were vegan/vegetarian and they really struggled with menu and what was delivered. The service was poor and noone to raise concerns with at the time to be properly addressed; again we left hungry and very disappointed. I've given up, finally. So much potential but hype doesn't cut the mustard. Good luck but no more excuses now.
Even though we only dined here for dinner and didn't stay overnight, we felt it was important to leave feedback. The property is fabulous, with stunning gardens and staff who are extremely friendly without being overly so. They made us feel comfortable and special. The menu, despite being just after lockdown, was not limited and well planned. The dishes were beautifully presented, served quickly, and absolutely delicious. The restaurant had organized its lockdown measures well, creating a relaxed atmosphere even with spaced out tables. Overall, it was a very enjoyable evening with delicious food that we will definitely return for when we visit this part of the UK again.
We were two of only four people eating in the restaurant and we decided not to have the tasting menu, but to choose from the Lounge menu instead. Skipping starters, we ordered the salmon and the steak: both were very tasty and the fat chips ordered as a side with the salmon were delicious. We had the cheese and an oatmeal and raspberry fool as desserts again, both were very good. We finished with tea and petit fours. The only criticism we would have is the music: not good!

Had a very enjoyable meal with my partner, supplementing the tasting menu. We thought the food was very creative and tasty and the service by the staff to be very attentive and efficient. The only improvement we could see was to possibly have a few more waiting staff on for the restaurant, although due to there being a wedding on, we could see how this might be challenging. Overall a fantastic evening
An absolutely superb evening from start to finish. We were here for a sadly diminished (in numbers) Diamond Wedding Anniversary celebration. The food was inventive, flavoursome and just the right quantity. Service was efficient and well paced. It was Michelin star quality, and even better for the fact that many of the ingredients come from their own garden. Highly recommended.
Wonderful food, atmosphere, service and surroundings. I cannot overstate how wonderful the food, staff and owners that run this beautiful establishment are. We had our first night away with our baby and we were made to feel so welcome and looked after. The chef needs holding on to because as much as the waitresses might not like his ego getting any bigger, he’s very talented
Had a wonderful ‘ Anniversary lunch’ Looked after extremely well by Emily, but all staff very friendly. The Oak Pavilion is a wonderful building for summer dining, with a magnificent open log fire for those cooler days. Food is fresh, and well cooked with some produce coming directly from The Kitchen Garden. Thank you to all the Goldstone Team. We will definitely be back.
