He commented on the fact that much of the produce for the menu is locally grown and sourced:

“The platters were attractively presented and the individual items were without exception excellent. The beef and the venison for the main course came from the Home Farm and were universally applauded, both very tender and very tasty.  The sea trout was equally good, a thick fillet fresh fromPoolethat morning, liberally encrusted with herbs and perfectly cooked.

The home-made desserts were first class, particularly the excellent home- churned ice cream. The generous selection of fine West Country cheeses was very well received. The service throughout was informal but efficient and the atmosphere was very friendly and welcoming. This is the third visit of the Wessex Branch and we will be sure to return. This Commendation is made with grateful thanks”.

The committee members then sat down to enjoy another exquisite lunch in The Stables Restaurant, a converted part of the original buildings, full of charm and character. Barbara can be contacted on 01258 830225.

Watercolour Artist Sally Pinhey, of Kingston Maurward College gave a most interesting account last night of her Himalayan Trek, where she observed familiar garden plants in their natural habitat. In the first of our ‘Dinner Group’ presentations, an enthusiastic gathering enjoyed a delicious supper (including lavender sponge roll filled with blackberry mousse!) prior to Sally’s presentation – where she quizzed us on our knowledge of plant species and showed spectacular photo’s of her wonderful trek.
