Country House Hotel Bar & Restaurant set in Fantastic Gardens

3

West Lodge Park is a country hotel set in beautiful grounds of The Beale Arboretum, comprising 800 different species of trees from around the world. Hotel guests can visit the grounds at any time and the Arboretum is open to the public every afternoons 2 - 5 pm (admission £2.50).
The Mary Beale restaurant (named after Britain's first professional woman painter) is light and airy with soft seating. The food in the bar ranges from sandwiches to more substantial bar meals such as sausage and mash, and there is also a full restaurant menu. They actively try and source locally - see here for more details:

There were several families with well behaved children when we were there - this is definitely not somewhere to have children running amok - and the access to the restaurant was fairly biggy friendly with only three small steps to navigate. There are changing facilities and also the toilets have lockable hooks if you want to leave your buggy or baby-bag somewhere while you eat.

A nice place to go for a walk / allow the kids to run around and then have a civilised meal or snack afterwards.
