    A beautiful clean restaurant with stunning views of the castle, The duck was absolutely delicious with just the right amount for a portion and the kentish pip cider accompanied it a treat, service was excellent and the ladies made sure everything was just right for us and our toddler.

    The sea bass and battered fish meals my wife and I had were sublime. The white chocolate and passion fruit cheesecake as well as the toffee apple crumble were divine. The fruit platter with chocolate truffles for my wife's birthday was a nice touch after the meal.
