The new summer menu for the WinePress Restaurant has just landed.
Head Chef Olly Sanders, has now been able to put his stamp firmly on our WinePress Restaurant, creating his very first seasonal menu.
The new summer menu was introduced on Monday, 10th July and is already receiving great feedback from diners. Moreover, the menu was launched on the same night that an AA Inspector paid a surprise visit. AA Inspectors book accommodation and dinner anonymously, only making themselves known upon check out.
Receiving some great feedback, with the Inspector once again endorsing the Restaurant’s 2 AA Rosette rating. Proudly, the WinePress has held it’s 2 AA Rosettes for over 6 years now. He commented “…the quality of the food was most enjoyable and comfortably exceeded four star Hotel expectations”

Already catering for several weddings; a large 4 day residential conference; numerous private dining events; as well as the day to day breakfast, casual dining, afternoon tea and room service menus.
The new a la carte menu demonstrates Olly’s commitment to continue he’s predecessors legacy of championing seasonal produce. Produce is sourced from the wealth of local suppliers on our doorstep.
