The Lakeside Restaurant forms the centrepiece of what is the largest log building in England. Although its awards and commendations are for its presentation, service and the freshly prepared food using fresh local produce, there is also something very special about the distinctive warmth and mellowness of its natural pine, the loftiness of the central area, the gallery level with its feature window overlooking the lake, and the cosy intimacy of dining tables with lake views and patio access.
Dishes on offer could include poached sundried tomato tortellini filled with a spicy ratatouille served with a gazpacho sauce, a warm smoked salmon and plum tomato salad tossed in a lemon saffron and olive oil dressing or broccoli and stilton soup with a lemongrass dumpling accompanied by warm homemade olive bread. In the land of robust, wholesome food spare a thought too for a black pudding and wild mushroom salad, or pan seared venison with a kumquat and fennel salad, raspberry vinegar dressing.
