Broughton, British, Modern Restaurant Guide

“Of course it has a wonderful location… but the food more than surpassed this”. “In a wonderful parkland setting” (22 acres of the Duke of Bedford’s Woburn Estate), this striking mock-Tudor timber building (originally built in France in 1878) is nowadays the stage for chef/patron Phil Fanning’s highly ambitious cuisine. The main event is a “memorable six-course tasting menu” for £99 per person, which on practically all accounts delivers a “thoroughly professional and delightful” experience: “each course is exceptional, with complex assemblies of often more than 10 components, but all complementing each other”. “It is fortunate you can have a two-hour walk amongst the deer after your meal!”
