A Somerset restaurant has been named among the best places to get a Sunday lunch in the UK, according to a list by The Guardian.
The Cotley Inn, located in Wambrook in Chard, was one of the 30 best listed by the newspaper.
In describing the restaurant The Guardian wrote: "An old stone farmhouse on the Cotley estate, with painterly views of the Blackdown Hills, it’s lit up in autumn by a fiery Virginia creeper and ringed by inviting-looking footpaths.
"The menu makes much of the surroundings, with beef and lamb sourced from the estate farm and homegrown rare-breed pork, chicken and veg."
One of The Cotley Inn's specialities is a "fireside mulled cider" with dishes like its ruby red beef and slow-cooked pork belly being a great compliment.
Plus, the restaurant is great for those who love game as it provides local venison, pheasant, Patridge and rabbit among others, particularly in the autumn and winter seasons.
