Harden's survey result
Summary
This “small, family-run hotel” in the idyllic Eden Valley has a “lovely restaurant” serving “good-quality locally sourced food” which includes “some very unusual dishes with lovely flavours”. The “front-of-house staff are great”, and you can make your stay more adventurous by glamping in a yurt in their private forest.
Summary
This “lovely village pub” – a traditional white-painted eighteenth-century Cumbrian inn – is the setting for some “accomplished and beautifully presented dishes in a stylish dining room”. Chef Scott Fairweather makes full use of the larder on his doorstep in this corner of the Eden Valley.
Summary
A comfortable stone inn set far from the madding crowds in a picturesque Eden Valley village, handy for the market town of Kirkby Stephen; food is in the safe hands of Scott Fairweather, whose hearty and occasionally inventive cooking makes the most of prime local sourcing (including pheasants from the Helbeck estate down the road).
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).
