Harden's survey result
Summary
The “perfect place for a special celebratory meal” in a “lovely setting”, this Cotswold manor house hotel has been one of the country’s leading gastronomic destinations over the past two decades. Executive chef Ricki Weston (ex-Sat Bains) was promoted to his first lead role last year, and has yet to match the high ratings achieved by his two predecessors, Martin Burge and Niall Keating, although his commitment to sustainability has won ‘green star’ recognition from Michelin.
Summary
Niall Keating’s “exceptional” cuisine using top-flight local produce to produce a stunning eleven-course tasting menu has helped maintain this Cotswold manor house’s position as one of the country’s top gastronomic destinations. And it’s a “romantic” one too thanks to the “superb surroundings”. It would have achieved our highest food score too, were it not for one or two reporters who felt their visit was “good… just not quite as good as I’d hoped!”.
Summary
Niall Keating put this Cotswold manor house (which, the history books tell us, was originally named ‘Twatley Manor’) ever-more firmly on the culinary map in October 2019, when it became one of 23 restaurants in the country with two Michelin Stars. All survey feedback on his eclectically inspired twelve-course tasting menu rates it between “very good” and “outstanding”, and this beautiful spot is a “great place for a romantic weekend away”.

For 32 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).
