The full-length windows in the striking slate and glass extension of this Lakeland country house provide spectacular views of Lake Windermere and the surrounding countryside. This is a place where the classic and the modern blend together in the decoration and also in the food. The set menu offers more than a nod to the location and the dishes deliver plenty of flavour, depth and refinement – but they are also generous and hearty; and be sure not to miss dessert. The impressive wine list offers a fine selection by the glass.
