    We visit the area every year and are always looking for something new. We found this resturant online and it had 3500+ reviews and 5 stars. The Gamekeeper did not disappoint. The staff were friendly and attentive. The menu is small, so they executed every detail perfectly. The food was really good. The location is beautiful. We will visit again.
