What the diners say: "We visited the White Lodge on 10th May, it looked very busy when we walked in, but was given a table for 3 straight away, we were looked after by our server Kate she was fantastic, she even had a chat with my daughter and nothing was too trouble at all, we ordered our meals, Burger, mixed grill and a cob salad, our drinks were bought to the table and Kate as she walked by saw my daughters glass was empty so asked if she wanted a top up and went to get her a refill straight away.

"She also made sure that we were happy with our food and checked on us when she walked past.

"Our meals were lovely and too full for a pudding. We will definitely return again."
