The sympathetic conversion of an important farmhouse dating back to the 16th century has preserved a warm charm that is enhanced and complemented by a welcome and a standard of service of which we are justly proud. Thoughtfully laid out and meticulously cared for, the large fragrant gardens surrounding the hotel provide a haven of rural tranquility. For both the business traveller and those using the hotel as a base for exploring the city, we are confident that your stay with us will be relished and recalled with fondness. Dining at the Tudor Lodge is a veritable delight. The beamed ceiling and subtle lighting of the restaurant provide a unique and intimate atmosphere to enjoy your choice of cuisine - whatever the occasion. The imaginative menu is traditionally English with a touch of continental flair, using a great variety of fresh, carefully selected seasonal produce. Delicately prepared and beautifully presented, the Chef's culinary prowess is complemented by an extensive range of fine wines from around the world to ensure your meal is a memorable dining experience. The lounge, with its beamed ceiling and walls, is an ideal setting to enjoy morning coffee or liqueurs after dinner, in the company of friends and family or business colleagues. Alternatively the Lodge Bar is the perfect setting for bar snacks or pre-dinner drinks. Celebrations, weddings, dinner parties, conferences and meetings are all successfully catered for at the Tudor Lodge. The Hotel has achieved a well earned reputation locally for the provision of events for both the private and business community. The secluded conference and syndicate rooms provide uninterrupted privacy in this rustic haven and have all the audio-visual equipment and conference aids that the meeting organiser may require. These facilities, combined with the professionalism and experience of the dedicated conference and banqueting team, will ensure that your event will be a total success.
