Eating Out – Garden Restaurant
The Garden Restaurant at Farringford House is within walking distance of the Studio Apartment – and is worth the walk.
The Farringford is of course, Tennyson’s famous home, set in it’s own grounds and currently undergoing rennovation. The Garden Restaurant isn’t affected by this because it’s located .. err, well, in the gardens . . . .
It’s described on the website – “Contemporary and comfortable surroundings compliment the seasonal modern British menus . . .” and I’d go along with that. Good food, good setting, relaxed and pleasant service, not cheap by local standards but not expensive. Well worth a visit and lots of interesting walks nearby if you want to make it a starting or finishing point for a visit to Tennyson’s Monment which about 20 minutes away, or The Needles which is about an hour’s walk – depending on how fast you walk.
More information is on the Garden Restaurant section of the Farringford website.
