Fashions come and go, but the personal charm of Mark and Felicity Seager’s intimate 15th-century cottage restaurant endures – the couple celebrate their 32nd year in 2023. What’s on offer is a set-price dinner menu of tried-and-tested favourites, such as roast rack of Welsh lamb with Dijon and herb crust or fillet steak with brandy, peppercorn and cream sauce, both served with homely roasted potato wedges and steamed vegetables. Treacle tart, with its crunchy breadcrumbed topping, continues to delight, while Felicity’s cheerful service and a value-for-money wine list (from £20) explain the venue's popularity.
