Herewith, a comprehensive choice of cafes, foodie-pubs or inns, restaurants, and hotels with restaurants, to suit the fussy gastronome. Choosing the right cafe, restaurant or inn can make or break a weekend, or romantic excursion. Of course, it depends on whether your main meal is lunch or dinner, and whether it can be fitted around your main activity of the day.
Be it a walk, bike ride, surf or visit to a stately home (who often have fantastic home-produce restaurants). For the enthusiastic gastronome who likes nothing better than tumbling into bed after a lengthy meal (and avoiding the drive home) we have provided a section on Restaurants With Rooms and Inns With Rooms (who may have a fantastic selection of fine ales and peaty malts). Our selection has been careful and judicious. We are extremely fussy and would dearly welcome your comments, so please email us your experiences, be they good, bad or indifferent. Meanwhile, Bon Appetite and a safe journey home!
