It really does need to be talked about in the same breath as some of the better-known places to eat in the Duchy as it's rather special" - Taste of the West Judges 2023 |

The Riverford Field Kitchen | South West Restaurant | "Riverford is a charming place.

Hospitality - Restaurants | 2023 | Gold | Devon |
The Royal Wootton Bassett | South West Restaurant | "The Royal at Royal Wootton Basset is indeed as it positions itself – a good blend between a pub and restaurant, from reading on their website to visiting in person.
