Harden's survey result
Summary
The “outstanding” meals produced in the walled garden of a Wiltshire estate, using vegetables grown on-site and locally sourced meat, generate consistently upbeat ratings (as well as visions of an earthly paradise from national newspaper critics: The Daily Telegraph’s William Sitwell declared it “incredibly splendid... all sublimely natural, skilfully cooked and presented with a deft artistic bent... a bucolic English paradise deserving of global fame” while Giles Coren of The Times was moved to quote John Milton’s Garden of Eden from ‘Paradise Lost’).
Summary
The “gorgeous” walled garden of a south Wiltshire estate provides a year-round setting for meals based around “vegetables and herbs from their plot” and “locally sourced meats” – “BBQ’d over a brazier in summer months”. There’s a “great atmosphere but slightly amateurish service and food – but it works”. Glamping and pick-your-own fruit and veg are also on-site.

Summary
“Dining in a walled kitchen garden off the very local fresh produce” can be a “magical” experience at this bucolic South Wiltshire venture (part of an estate which also operates as a wedding venue, glamping destination and fruit picking centre). The short menu of simple fare has options from breakfast onwards.
For 31 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).
