Muckrach Country House Hotel

Went for 7 person afternoon tea, very high quality, and very attentive staff.

We were most impressed with the serving staff. They were friendly, obliging and efficient. Very pleasant at all times. The atmosphere in both the restaurant and the lounge was most relaxing and we thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. The food served was first class. Never and I mean never have we tasted fillet steaks as good as those served to us along with your beautiful pepper sauce. You must have an excellent butcher and wonderful chef. Already, we have told some of our friends of the experience. We will be back soon.

Had Sunday lunch recently. Good all-day menu including traditional Sunday roast. The venison pie was delicious, as was the creme brûlée, though (as usual) the pie wasn’t really a pie but a casserole. Sticking a topping of pastry on to a dish of casserole does not make it a pie! Service was great and friendly and ambience in the restaurant and lounge was very relaxing. Would we go back? Oh, yes! Anytime!

EXCELLENT MEAL , GOOD MENU CHOICE , NICE WINE , AMBIENT SURROUNDINGS , GREAT PLEASANT SERVICE

Went for light lunch with my parents for their wedding anniversary. Bright and airy conservatory restaurant, great, friendly service and a good selection of dishes.

We arrived with a reservation for afternoon tea, and were directed to a table overlooking the lower gardens. The beautiful scenery with large trees was lovely as we waited for our waiter to come to our table.

We felt that our server either did not like us or did like his job because he was not friendly and did not seem to care about our service or experience. We were not told what was on the trays before us, asked if we needed anything during our meal, and had to find someone for our bill.

The afternoon tea prepared by the chef was delicious. All items were fresh and very good. The service was bad.

Neither my wife and I are generally complainers, but we do expect a certain level of service when we dine.

The facilities are very well maintained, beautiful, and seem well appointed.
