We had been meaning to go the Potarch Hotel many times in the past, but it had never fitted in to our plans. We'd heard good things about it and so were disappointed on this, our first visit. There were plenty of cars parked outside on a cold January Saturday, which is generally a good sign. The fire wasn't lit... More

We've been regulars at Potties on and off for the past couple of years and went for a post shoot dinner (15 of us). We were seated in a private lounge with a roaring log fire which was lovely although it did get colder as the night progressed and out waitress didn't seem that interested in getting the heating back...

Starter was nice enough but over-priced (seafood platter £9) and I suspect none of the components were prepared in house except for the brick-like wedge of bread which was as dry as a Pharoh's sandal.

I couldnt decide what to eat on both nights- too many delicous choices- its rare that vegetarians are given such a wide choice. My partner who is... More

What a fabulous find. We ventured into this hotel on a family day out expecting run of the mill pub grub. How wrong were we..... the food was fabulous - fresh, local and seasonal- and the service was excellent. Add to that he beautiful location, we will definitely be back. Thank you! More

The scallops were raw. The bread provided with the soup was brick hard and the bread provided with the burger was also brick hard. The service provided was not good. Would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. More
