This 16C former farmhouse sits in a sleepy village close the Humber Estuary, in an area rich in agriculture. The long-standing owners – Colin and Bex McGurran – also have their own smallholding where they rear animals and grow vegetables, which makes the cooking highly seasonal. Their impeccable ingredients are married with classic techniques, resulting in refined, confidently executed dishes with bags of flavour. Colin was born in Zambia and spent his childhood years in the Middle East, so there are always a few subtle nods to his past too. The best way to fully experience his cooking is the multi-course surprise dinner menu. Service is professional yet personable and the team work together to create an almost country house style experience. Bedrooms mix classic character with modern comforts, and some have a slightly eclectic style.
