Harden's survey result
Summary
A “country house atmosphere”, “excellent service” and “delicious food” win praise from fans of this “beautiful” Cotswolds hotel – owned by greetings card mogul Andrew Brownsword – and it “should please every romantic”. Ratings were dragged down, though, by other reporters who feel that the house is “lovely but tired”, while “the food is good-ish, but certainly could be better”.
Summary
Relais & Châteaux’s “really nice country house hotel restaurant”, with a quintessential Cotswolds vibe, where chef Will Guthrie delivers “top-notch cooking” that is English to the core but not without innovation (and features the bounties of the county's market garden, the neighbouring Vale of Evesham).
Summary
“A first class experience from the warm welcome on arrival” – this Relais & Châteaux country house hotel is the epitome of a traditional Cotswolds destination and “very efficiently run, but in a very charming and stylish way”. William Guthrie and his team deliver “wonderful” updated cuisine, be it from the three-course menu for £70, or the hardly more expensive seven-course taster option for £80. This is also a splendid choice for afternoon tea: “a little piece of calm luxury”.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
