Review by hotel critic
During my recent stay at the Farmer's Arms, I was particularly impressed by their culinary innovation. As an archaeologist, I appreciate connections with local culture, and the restaurant here embodies that spirit. The oak-beamed dining area exudes warmth, perfect for a hearty meal after a day of exploration. During my visit, I experienced their award-winning chef's commitment to fresh, local ingredients. I savored a delicious lamb dish that tasted as though it had been sourced from the nearby fields, showcasing a perfect combination of seasonal flavors. The meals can be served in a private dining room, which offers an inviting atmosphere for intimate gatherings—a feature that would surely appeal to fellow travelers looking for a special dining experience. Breakfast is served promptly at 7:30 AM, providing an excellent start to the day, especially for those eager to venture out and absorb the surrounding countryside. The terrace dining option is also noteworthy; I enjoyed a delightful meal there, allowing me to appreciate the serene landscape while indulging in thoughtfully prepared dishes. The Farmer's Arms presents an authentic culinary experience that travelers—and food enthusiasts like me—would undoubtedly appreciate.
