We have eaten here several times over the years; always superb and never a disappointment - high quality, fresh food, local produce, warm hosting - everything you could possibly want from a restaurant.
Decided to write a review as recently we attended one of Feli's 1 day cookery classes (themed around 'A table in Tuscany') - this was outstanding. Feli has a great setup at the restaurant, and is a natural teacher - the class was rich with practical hints and tips alongside Italian anecdotes and traditions.

The food is locally sourced, fresh and tastes divine. From the moment we entered the restaurant which appeared to be very clean and cosy. The staff was welcoming and couldn't do enough for us.

The food was cooked at a level I have never experienced before, you could taste the passion of the chef in what he produced. Beautiful food at a very reasonable cost, highly recommend to anyone looking for an...
