“A great place for a civilised lunch” – so long as you don’t expect culinary fireworks. This impressive William & Mary country house on the outskirts of York is owned by the National Trust (and was once the residence of traveller and writer Lady Mary Wortley Montague, who introduced the practice of smallpox inoculation to Britain after witnessing it in Turkey).

With its “lovely, old, grandiose atmosphere”, the NT’s William & Mary country pile is a “beautiful place to eat in high-ceilinged dining rooms” and its cooking is consistently well-rated, if seldom plugged as being terrifically exciting. Top Tip – “lovely surroundings for an excellent afternoon tea: really spoiling”.

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).
