The Marquess Of Exeter
$110-200 / malam
Pesan ini jika You want a Michelin-quality Indian feast followed by a stumble across the courtyard to a cozy, dog-friendly bed in a storybook English village.
Mengapa Orang Menyukainya
- Krishna's at The Marquess: Michelin Bib Gourmand Indian cuisine in a rural pub
- Separate accommodation block ensures pub noise doesn't bleed into bedrooms
- Direct garden access rooms that make traveling with dogs effortless
Ringkasan Cepat: A destination restaurant that happens to have very decent rooms attached, rather than a hotel that serves food.
Ditinjau oleh @yellowshoesorangeumbrella: I spent the weekend at this historic gem in Lyddington. The open fire in the snug is the perfect spot for a glass of red, and the village is incredibly peaceful. If you need to unplug and eat great food, this is the place.
