We are strengthening the team with another full time colleague, carrying out five 8 hour shifts per week.

The Henry Robertson fine dining room with tranquil views over the lawns serves our four and seven course tasting menus, and the rustic Huntsman bistro offers more relaxed dining from a traditional la carte menu.
