Kitchen
“The breakfast menu is different class. I've never seen such a varied and exciting breakfast menu and I'm only sorry I didn't stay longer to work my way through it. The wild mushrooms, prosciutto and eggs on sour dough was divine and the treat of soft scrambled eggs with leeks, courgettes, spinach and parmesan made me feel saintly."
