    We had an incredible meal at Morston Hall- the tasting menu was fantastic, so well balanced and decadent. We all especially enjoyed the bbq langoustine with tomatoes. The bar waiter was exceptional, he created a bespoke non-alcoholic cocktail ‘flight’ for me personally which was very much appreciated, as well as being fun, well matched, and delicious! We had an outstanding evening of exceptional service, food and drinks.

    Delicious afternoon tea in a relaxed atmosphere. Sandwiches weren’t finger sandwiches as expected, but were tasty all the same. Scones were delicious. We both took the top layer of cakes home as we were full by the time we got to the top! Polite and friendly staff.
