Lascelles At Parsonage Country House

I chose to dine at Lascelles because the building looked beautiful and it was a convenient location for people coming from different directions. The menu appeared to be very appetizing, but the reality was quite disappointing. The starters were okay, but the sirloin steaks were chewy, rubbery, and overcooked. The pork loin was tough and the pomme frites were so hard they crumbled easily. When I sent back my steak, it came back just as bad. My mother couldn't even finish her pork loin. Despite our best efforts, my husband and sons eventually gave up on their meals. We were offered complimentary desserts, but even the soufflé was unexpectedly heavy. My teenage son diplomatically told the manager that the service was nice, but the food was a disappointment. Overall, it was my birthday and the meal ruined what had been a fantastic day. The restaurant had the audacity to charge us £180 for this subpar experience. I would not return to Lascelles and would not recommend it to others. I felt regretful for choosing this place.

More lighting is needed, especially in the food preparation area. Some tables were too dark and unwelcoming.

We discovered this hotel online and were immediately intrigued by its location in a quaint village. Upon arrival, we were impressed by the amenities it offered, including a pool, a large gym, and a beautiful spa. The on-site restaurant, The Fat Abbot, served delicious and mouth-watering food with a great selection of wines. Although the hotel's own restaurant was closed, we had no issue dining at The Fat Abbot, which is affiliated with the hotel. The staff at the hotel were exceptional, providing attentive and polite service. The manager, Janet, was particularly knowledgeable about all aspects of the hotel and made our stay truly enjoyable. We plan to return for our wedding anniversary, thanks to Janet's exceptional service. Thank you for making our first visit memorable, and we look forward to many more. Sincerely, Mr. and Mrs. D J Riley, Lincolnshire, UK.

Although the quality of the food was of a high standard my wife was disappointed at the meagre portion of fish she was served at dinner. I would recommend that guests use the Fat Abbott restaurant in preference to the Lascelles. Also prices are more reasonable for both food and drinks

Stayed in the hotel for the evening and on arrival told restaurant was fully booked. Was very disappointed but later that day asked again if they could squeeze us in and they did. Now here is the funny part on arrival there was only 5 tables all night. The restaurant had another 20 empty. Back to the food, it was very good. I had venison carpaccio that was stunning. Then rabbit which was nice too. We finished with the cheese platter which was amazing. Service was okay and friendly but certainly needs improving in its approach to guests. Although all staff were very pleasant.
