    Lovely food, lovely atmosphere. Slightly expensive but worth…read moreevery penny. This is the place to go for your birthday or special occastion, staff are freindly polite and really helpful.

    My friends and I have been going to the Jade Cottage since it opened over 12 years and have always…read morehad an excellent experience as the food is absolutely first class. Always welcoming, with attentive service and a varied menu with both chinese and thai dishes to choose from. I don't think the prices are any more expensive than any other Chinese restaurant - but even if they are, the quality of the food at the Jade would certainly justify it. The peking and thai feast is particularly popular and great value if there's a group of you - three courses including an excellent selection of hors d'oeuvres, crispy duck, and a selection of main courses for under 20 quid a head - and believe me, there's plenty of food for your money! Special occasions such as christmas and new year are brilliant fun at the Jade as Frankie, the owner, will put on the karaoke system (although as everywhere the price goes up a little on those nights). I don't have a bad word to say really - it's the best chinese restaurant i've ever been to, anywhere. And they own the takeaway next door, Kings, which serves the same outstanding grub for you to enjoy at home. Not sure what else I can say, apart from give them a bell and book a table - you won't regret it and you'll return again and again!

    Wow! Classic western English pub (ok, high class) fare. Near Highclere castle, the carpenters arms…read moreoffers a fantastic lunch and a wonderful view of the western English countryside. We were comfortably seated in the back room and quickly served by the wait staff. Baby Girl M decided on fried Brie (Jesus take the wheel!) and progressed to the standard ham and cheese sandwich - the Brie far out stripped the sandwich. Glammom went traditional with fish and chips - standard. Momma K - Prawn and crab salad / wonderfully prepared and tasty! I decided to try the lamb pie - talk about comfort food! Although really set up to give tourists the old "English pub field", it was a good time and good food. Frankly, I love the fact that restaurants and businesses in England are also dog friendly. So, OK this was a tad touristy but definitely worth a go!

    We stayed here for just the one night (in the area to take our daughter to visit Airkix for her…read morebirthday). Our room consisted of a double bedroom, a twin bedroom and an interconnecting kitchenette. It also had a shower room. Beds were very comfortable, rooms were spacious and the shared kitchen (in addition to the kitchenette in the room) contained breakfast foodstuffs. To top it off you wake up overlooking Watership down. What more could you ask for? Great value accommodation, would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to visit this area.

    After our local 'date night' restaurant closed, my partner and I, were seeking a new place that…read morecould provide me with delicious gluten free meals and him with the same but in 'normal' style. I have to say we were both disappointed by our meals. As we were new customers we decided to only order gluten free, this in itself is a wonderful option that I am very excited to see becoming standard norm across a lot of these chain restaurants. But in their pursuit to cater this option have forgotten the basics, flavour and taste. I have to confess that I find it a little insulting to have a couple of slices of Genius bread given as a substitute for, as we could see on other tables, a gorgeous baked baguette that is beautifully warmed. This does not constitute an acceptable replacement for the glutenous part of the 'normal' dishes. Stale cardboard bread aside, the French onion soup was nice. I wasn't over balled by its flavour at first but a touch more seasoning and it was more suited to my palette, if not just a little bitter. My dining adventure finished with the Bouillabaisse. What a mistake on my part, I would usually take a little more care and attention in how I describe something I have eaten but on this occasion I believe I could summarise in a few exacting words; over cooked, under seasoned and broken shell shards. I would like to say that I will be back and would love to give them a second chance, after all everyone has an off night and perhaps this was just one of those nights. But in reality I have to confess this is unlikely to happen, a disappointing meal, for two, for around £60 is one that I would prefer not to have to experience again in the future.

    Excellent service. This was a nice respite from a busy trip to England, very quiet and relaxed. The…read morebanana pancakes and bacon I had were delicious!
