Avoid/Don't bother. We tried to get a meal here at 8.35 pm, the dining room was busy, but there were several free tables, inside and outside on the terrace, and most of the diners had just been served their main courses. We were refused a table, as " the chef says there's nothing left as they've had a busy day"... More

The weekend that we visited only had a limited menu available so I cannot comment on the complete menu. We had the tzatziki and grilled prawns to start which were delicious but there were only 4 prawns. We both had the lamb shish kebab which were delicious, my husbands lamb was a little undercooked for him but that's a personal... More

We were so pleased that Fern Cottage agreed to host us late (just after 8:40) on a Thursday evening in early May. Our B&B host had secured the reservation, and despite being the last customers admitted, we did not feel rushed or hurried at all. Our meals were very good: the ingredients were fresh and of high quality, and the... More

Visited this restaurant on a busy Bank Holiday Sunday, and we were greeted warmly on arrival. The staff were delightful and couldn't have been more attentive. After a plate of delicious olives served with very mediocre dry bread, we ordered the vegetarian platter to share with extra halloumi, while mum chose the salmon with honey, dill and whole grain mustard...

We had a fantastic meal at the Fern cottage at the end of March. The restaurant came reccommended and we were not dissappointed. The service was great and the food was fantastic. It was nice to be given the time to eat at our own pace and for the staff to be so attentive. No it isnt a cheap option,... More
