The Priory Hotel

Stayed at the Heron suite overlooking the river. Separate lounge area, large bathroom and well fitted bedroom. Lounge opened onto a terrace on the banks of the river, ideal setting with a bottle of champagne. Evening meal at the restaurant with friends celebrating their wedding anniversary was superb. Service was quick and efficient, all courses were really good,especially the enormous cheese board.

We had lunch in the main restaurant with a beautiful view of the gardens and river. Both the food and service were excellent. Christian’s burst into song to my husband joined in then by the whole restaurant was a birthday treat for my husband. Highly recommend the venue and special thanks to Christian and Lucinda for exceptional service and making our birthday lunch special.

This was a lunch time visit to celebrate a family birthday at the riverside restaurant. The restaurant overlooks the river providing a wonderful vista. The restaurant is well set out and provides a relaxing ambiance. On arriving we were well received by the staff who gave a run down on the menu, and assuring us that we only have to ask for assistance. My wife and sister in-law opted for smoked haddock croquette, which they thoroughly enjoyed, I opted for the Goats cheese with with figs and melon, super tasty. The mains for the girls was fish pie, and myself mussels, again empty plates. Only my wife and I had the dessert for which we selected Dorset apple tart with cream. The wine selected was Muscadet, reasonably priced. Followed by 3 Cappuccinos. An exceptionally enjoyable lunch which was £45 for three courses, great value for money. The car park is not very large , so it may pay to have an early lunch.
