First visit in a long time to The Priest Hole and thoroughly enjoyed the meal. Atmosphere was superb and the restaurant was welcoming and warm after a wet day outside. The Beef short-rib special was particularly delicious.

Really good food and value for money. They have a lovely building and could do so much more with the main room for not much money. That would improve the whole experience
