This place is absolutely fantastic. The food is a different level to anything available locally, great produce and beautifully cooked. The service is relaxed but efficient and friendly. The venue is a beautifully restored train carriage with comfortable seats and lovely view of the landscaped garden. The prices are very reasonable for the quality on offer. The Herefordshire beef in crumpets is a must, as is the cooked breakfast. Farm shop next door is also worth a look with great local produce.

Unusual.location but fun to be dining aboard a very nicely decorated vintage train, 1st class carriage. Friendly, attentive staff, food was lovely and plenty of tasty dishes for vegetairans/vegans. In fact, in comparison, my husband felt the full English was boring! The Eggs Royal was outstanding and the Foccacia with Goats Curd & red onion marmalade was very tasty too. Nice & warm.on board too! The adjacent farm shop veg & cakes were good too.

Fabulous festive train with an interesting menu. The pulled beef was very good …. Afternoon tea looked great ….. maybe next time.
The gardens were well kept & the farm shop lovely - bought the local Cassis .
The restored carriages were a n authentic treat - it felt as if we were starting off on a wonderful journey….
Comfortable seats, original table lamps & just a brilliant way to spend a few hours. Thank you & Merry Christmas. Next stop ….2025!

The staff are lovely, welcoming, attentive & pleasant.
The only small gripe I have is with my Roasted squash dish. It contained rather a lot of raw red peppers which is not mentioned on the menu. It is an ingredient I don’t much like but not a huge problem. There was also something strange in the mixture which I first thought were strips of plastic but we. We decided after a little debate it was the fibrous outside of either garlic or onion. Quite unpleasant & disconcerting!! Maybe peel it next time? The portion was also much too large. However it was a great pre- Christmas experience & we will come again. Maybe I’ll choose something else next time!!
Happy Christmas 🎄

We went for brunch… with our son and partner. It was an innovative concept eating in a railway carriage. The food was top notch, the staff were lovely and we had a great time! Will be back.

What a great surprise to see two carriages and the landscaping around them in the middle of an industrial estate. They have done a fantastic job and having tea in a railway carriage was very authentic and a good experience.
