Excellent new pub and restaurant with a unique approach. Everyone should give this place a try. The food is great and the ambiance very relaxing. If you like a country pub with a twist, this is your place!

Superb! We went for lunch and we all had the full acre. It was all delicious, beautifully presented and the staff are friendly and knowledgable.
Particular highlights for me were the potato done three ways and the turbot.
The wine pairings are well-chosen and really do complement the food.
Seasonal, locally sourced food, cooked perfectly. What’s not to love?
What a little gem!
Relaxed ,friendly staff and atmosphere combined with the very best in culinary genius.Nothing is too much trouble.All dietary requirements were not only met with understanding but the chef exceeded all our expectations.Keep it up you were amazing !
Wow! What a lovely place.. My partner and I stumbled across this last night and we had the most amazing evening. The restaurant looks lovely inside and staff are very friendly and welcoming! Most importantly the food is absolutely incredible we were blown away. Couldn’t be happier to have this gem on our doorstep... If you haven’t tried it yet your missing out!
Gem in the middle of the country! From the moment you arrive you notice the attention to detail. Matt at front of house and his staff offer a warm welcome into the beautifully decorated bar. The selections of local and niche brand drinks are a welcome change from the norm. Food is wonderfully created by the amazing Will and has a wonderful way of again celebrating and resourcing local produce.
From start to finish you will enjoy every moment at The Small Holding, regardless of if you are having small plates or full meal. Well done on creating a wonderful place to Enjoy!
What an absolute gem of a place. We went yesterday and had the most delicious lunch. All so creatively made and presented. Wonderful local ingredients. Rates in one of my top meals of all time! Couldn’t fault the Small Holding. I just need an excuse to go back again soon.
This really is a place if you wanna spend a night eating and drinking the finest. Staff are great, they know their stuff, introduction to the dish as its served is a stroke of genius.
What a fabulous place, just enjoyed a delicious 5 course taster menu. The service was amazing. Wine superb.We will definitely go back .
A wonderful evening last night with great service and delicious food!!
My compliments to a fantastic, talented Chef and his wonderful team for an excellent evening!!
Will definately be visiting this lovely place again!!
Highly recommended.
Had dinner here last night. Food and service were utterly amazing and reminded me of my favourite Michelin Stared Danish restaurant. Would highly recommend and will be returning soon.
Just heard about the recent opening and we were hoping to uncover a new local gem. Today’s lunch at The Small Holding did not disappoint! Lovely restaurant, very friendly service and delicious, locally sourced dishes executed brilliantly. Can’t wait to try the chef’s new dishes as the menu changes with the seasons.
We had a fantastic dinner the other night. Beautifully crafted menu that celebrates seasonal, local, fresh produce perfectly! A fantastic new restaurant for the area and one we can’t wait to visit again!
We had an amazing ‘full acre’ meal at the Small Holding last night. Every course was outstanding, from the quality and flavour experiences of the food, to the wine pairings, to the passionate descriptions of the food and wine given by the chefs and front of house. Just sad that we didn’t get to finish off with the sweet box! Must have been having too much fun to notice at the time! Oh well, it will mean another trip back soon!
Just had a wonderful 1/2 acre lunch at this unique restaurant, a must for all food lovers.
Fantastic birthday lunch, amazing food and great service. Already planning our next visit.
Great spot. Amazing beers and delicious food. Will definitely be back!
Had an amazing night at The Smallholding tonight. Great friends, food and wine, what else do you need? Thanks to the friendly and very talented team at the Smallholding for a brilliant evening.
One of the best meals we've had recently. Would highly recommend the full acre option, every dish was beautifully presented and tasted exceptional. The chef is very talented and creative, which is demonstrated in the thought and delivery of the menu. I love that most ingredients are either from their farm or local suppliers, and I love their seasonal and sustainable ethos. We look forward to returning and trying a menu from a different month. Thank you!
Absolute fantastic! An amazing treat. Go for the full 8 course full acre menu and enjoy! Great service too, chefs bring out the dishes and tell you about the dish. Wonderful! The Head of house was excellent,friendly,knowledgeable.
My husband and I visited today for our 7th Wedding Anniversary and were completely blown away by the experience. The food is exceptional, nothing was too much trouble and we had the most wonderful afternoon.
Absolutely incredible restaurant! The staff are so knowledgeable (warm and friendly) and involved in all the processes to bring you a selection of locally sourced, and in some cases grown onsite, dishes that will excite all your senses! Every dish was stunning to look at and discovered tastes that I have never experienced before.
Highly highly recommend!
This place is 10/10. Fabulous food, beautiful setting, friendly and knowledgeable staff. The wine list is really interesting, and all the wines we tried were delicious. Will definitely be returning.
Such a treat!! I kidnapped my hubby and brought him here for our wedding anniversary. Every serving was well-planned, thought-through and full of flavour. It isn’t cheap, but we whole-heartedly recommend it if you want to have an unforgettable experience. A special thanks to the chef and cooking staff, as I personally have a lot of food allergies and intolerances and they made me feel very welcome and not different from anyone else.
I could not rate this enough, genuinely 10/10!
The price/quality ratio is on point, the food is amazing and the staff is super nice without giving you any "fake smiles".
Absolutely deserving of their Michelin star, and I can't wait to tell everyone about this place.
This was a 10/10 culinary experience but without the stiffness you sometimes get from similar places. We arrived and took a few minutes to look at the vegetables growing on the on-site farm which gave us a real feel for the local and sustainable approach of the resturant.
Once in the interior and the staff set the tone, warm, friendly and relax. You are encouraged to eat and drink at your own pace and enjoy the experience.
On to the food… it’s amazing! Each course is presented by one of the chefs alongside a quick introduction to what the dish is and where it came from. I won’t go into every course but hopefully the images paint a picture!
On the booze… I had a local craft beer on arrival which I will certainly be buying again, a glass of white with the fish and red with the meat. Perfectly recommended and complementary to the dishes.
Green Michelin - starred restaurant specialising in sustainable, farm to plate dishes. 6 or 9 course tasting menus with or without matching wines. Fabulous food, wonderful fresh, seasonal and mainly local and own ingredients, great service and super atmosphere. Really top place. Small and welcoming.
Simply amazing. Perhaps better than anywhere else, they combine fine dining with an atmosphere that’s actually lovely and relaxed. That’s not to say that the service isn’t as good as any fine dining restaurant I’ve eaten in. Love the use of produce grown on site. As for the wine list…always lots of new things to discover on there. Can’t recommend highly enough.
