    A great and welcoming dining experience, where the staff make you feel very special. The food was excellent, and a real credit to the whole team involved. I'm sure we will be back again.

    We’ve just been for a delicious Sunday roast at The Old Deanery. Food, wine and service all top notch. Three courses for £38 isn’t bad value at all given the quality. The dining room is light and airy but still cozy and had a lovely calm atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back and would recommend it to anyone.

    We just had our wedding at The Old Deanery in October and I can't praise the venue and it's team enough. Rebecca and the dream team were so helpful throughout the whole process and were incredibly accommodating. They put our minds at ease and made our day so fantastic. The venue is beautiful, both inside and out. All the guests were well catered for and looked after. We also had A LOT of compliments from guests about how incredible the food was for both the main meal and nibbles. Many said it was the best food that they'd ever had at a wedding. And I would fully agree ! Thank you so much!
