One Star: High quality cooking
An engaging team welcome you to this substantial Lakeland mansion; start with drinks in the lounge and take in views over the surrounding fells. The room has a rustic feel and a glass-topped table crafted from a wind-blown tree takes centre stage. Ingredient provenance plays a major role, with produce often coming from their Victorian kitchen garden or local suppliers, as well as being foraged by the team. Skilfully prepared, creative dishes are full of vibrant colours, textural contrasts and sublime flavours, such as scallop with homemade tabasco and Worcestershire sauce.

"We grow over 100 vegetables and 25 herbs in our chemical-free garden. We source meat, dairy & fish within 10 miles, offer organic & biodynamic wines, and forage herbs & berries locally. Our gardens support wildlife, including red squirrels and roe deer. Interiors feature locally made furniture."

— Paul Leonard
