The Swan - Reservar una mesa

We popped into the Swan on the off chance they had a table for dinner. The friendly staff checked, found space and squeezed us in. We had starter, main and shared a dessert which sadly started as 10/10 and wound up at 5. Starting with chicken liver pate and a baked camembert which were both excellent. We followed that with steak ale pie which, once we mixed in the mashed potato had an acceptably thick gravy; had we had chips the pie would have been disappointing gravy in pies should be thick not runny, however flavourful and this was tasty. The pudding was disappointing in contrast to both the main and starter. We had a deconstructed lemon meringue pie with raspberry sorbet. Sadly the sorbet was too jammy, the meringue was not home made and the biscuit base could have been more exciting. Over all, we feel chef could have made simple improvement to the main and dessert that would have elevated the dishes. The staff were great, the value for money excellent; next time we will skip the pudding and give the steak a go.

What a beautiful quaint little gem! We went here with 2 other couples on the 29th July and we had the most fantastic experience here. The steaks were absolutely outstanding, the bar staff were so attentive while making our favourite drinks up (even the barman trying our suggestion of half Thatchers Gold and half Thatchers Haze mixed together!! and the breakfast was just superb. I honestly don’t have a bad word to say about this place as it was such great value for money. The staff just make this place so special. From the people behind the bar in the day that checked us in to our rooms and the evening staff (such a great laugh!! , the fab waitress who looked after us at dinner, the amazing chefs who cooked our steaks and our beautiful breakfast and the lovely lady who was cleaning our rooms in the morning. Whatever you guys are doing, you are doing it right and we will be back to visit again!

Extremely disappointing pizza. The menu claims that it is ‘hand made’ but ‘assembled with the cheapest ingredients from the cash and carry’ would be more accurate. What I got was a ready made base smeared with tomato purée, no pizza herbs and what looked and tasted like the torn up fragments of a cheese slice.
