Harden's says

One of two restaurants within the new luxury Hampshire spa hotel, with food - much of it grown on the premises - under the watchful eye of Skye Gyngell. See also the less formal Hearth.

Aussie chef Skye Gyngell’s “ambitious establishment” – a Georgian country house dining room in a “beautiful location” overlooking a lake and parkland. They are “very conscious of their environmental responsibility”, with “almost all ingredients locally grown or reared” and served in pared-back style. But while it received strong ratings all-round for its luxury hotel setting, a couple of reports did note “a feeling one has to be on one’s best behaviour!”

“Skye Gyngell’s country outpost” occupies the dining room of a Georgian house – nowadays a luxurious hotel and spa. It doesn’t inspire a huge volume of feedback, but such as we have says its a “lovely venue with a beautifully executed menu relying heavily on local produce”.

A prime setting with “lovely countryside views from the dining room” are part of the joys of this revamped luxury spa hotel, in a Georgian building with interiors by a protégé of celebrated designer Ilse Crawford. This is the more formal (or “subdued”) of two eateries here – both offering “great food from Skye Gingell” (on the pared-back side, with much sourced on-site).

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).
