We ask that you supervise your children when visiting and ensure they are respectful of other diners, gardens and the village community. Please note the restaurant gardens are not enclosed, there is a stream running through the village and neighbouring fields, as well as big farming vehicles and cars driving past at pace.

We adore babies, however, in poor weather, we have very limited space for buggies inside, if you are new to us the restaurant is long and slim and can get very busy. So it’s always worth checking if there is space, or mentioning it in the booking notes so the best table can be reserved for you and your party in advance of your arrival.

If your child is under three, we’re happy for you to bring their baby food and warm it for you in hot water, we do not have a microwave. Otherwise, we ask only food purchased at the restaurant is eaten on the premises.
