Harden's survey result
Summary
With sweeping views across Lake Windermere, Simon Rogan’s Lakeland dining room showcases natural, seasonal ingredients in a relaxed, informal setting. (The name derives from a rocky outcrop on the lake, known as Hen Rock, which is often visible from the terrace of the hotel). All reports acclaim a good experience here, but the cooking – led by chef Sam Fry – is not aiming to match that of Simon’s more ambitious venues and “there’s not the excitement of its parent restaurant, L’Enclume”. Most reporters seem forewarned on this score, though, finding cuisine “of the standard expected” with a good degree of imagination and very well realised.
Summary
Simon Rogan is running this October 2019 newcomer at Windermere’s extensively revamped Linthwaite House which, since 2016, has benefited from over £12m of refurbishment and expansion. Under head chef, Brian Limoges, the culinary style is much more straightforward and inexpensive than L’Enclume.

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).

Henrock Restaurant Diner Reviews
"A really perfect breakfast selection, superb quality. And excellent dinners in both the bar and the full restaurant. Delightful combinations of fresh local seasonal foods, with great wines and interesting cocktails too"
"Phenomenal flavours from amuse bouche through to “pre-dessert” - a first for me . Sunshine on the terrace topped a memorable September Sunday lunch. "
