We dined at The Inn at Lathones every night of our stay. The food is absolutely fabulous and everything was perfect. My husband raved about his meals and as a coeliac I highly recommend their GF menu too. All of our evening meals and also our breakfasts were perfect - Quality and quantity. The service was professional, friendly and we were never left to wait long to order or for service between courses. Highly recommend.

Our first impression driving up was a little disappointing as the Inn looked a bit shabby. The room was very clean but a little painting required e.g. round the door and windows, which also needed cleaned. It was a superb shower room. Large and bright. Personal taste I know, but the flooring didn't really match the tiles chosen. We felt the room was functional and lacked a little comfort e.g. occasional chairs to sit on but the beds were very comfortable. The restaurant food was excellent both in flavour and presentation. The chef is to be commended. All other staff were very pleasant and helpful. The 8 for ambience was due entirely to us being the only guests while we had dinner and the points for overall experience were due to our first impressions of the inn and room. We met Michael who we found to be very friendly and he took time out of his busy day to chat with us which we appreciated. Hoping our comments are not considered negative but helpful as we know times are hard for many businesses at the moment. Thank you.

The choice on the menu was fantastic as was all the food when it came. The waitress was so lovely. I took a couple of points off as I felt very cold. The heating was on but it is such a large area it really made no difference. There was a lovely big log burner but sadly it wasn’t on. The restaurant was very quiet which really didn’t do anything for the ambiance, no ones fault. Would definitely return.

Staying at hotel, so had dinner here. Good choice menu and decent wine list. Prices were what seems normal everywhere these days. Food was cooked to order and was served in a reasonable time. We had the same main course and both agreed that it was tasty, hot and we’ll presented. We shared a sweet and it was a decent size and was as described in the menu. Overall we enjoyed what we had with no complaints.

When we arrived we were taken to the dining room but not taken to our table. The window blinds were closed even though it was broad daylight; this added to the gloomy atmosphere along with the decor. The table surface was uneven and too high. A tablecloth would have helped the decor. On the plus side the food was very good apart from the green vegetables not being cooked enough and almost raw. The portion size was very good and good value. The menu choice was very good but the wine list could have been more extensive. There is definite room for improvement.

A very good experience. Very good starter and fillet steak. Dessert lacked subtlety. Service efficient. Payment required by card which was unnecessary.
