Careys Manor Hotel Lyndhurst Road Brockenhurst Hampshire SO42 7RH
The folk at Careys Manor have come up trumps with this new dining addition to our favourite New Forest country hotel and spa. They re-interpret dishes by fusing classic favourites with flavours from around the world, creating a unique take on modern British cuisine inspired by the forest with ingredients sourced as locally as possible. Just our kind of place in fact. Head Chef Dylan James' Modern British menu is traditional yet innovative, and in many ways deliberately simple – on paper as it is on the plate, with no wasted words or ingredients, and certainly no purple prose to describe each dish. Ingredients are mostly seasonal, sourced locally where possible, and there are around half a dozen starters, main courses and desserts to choose from and they also have vegan and vegetarian options. And the environment? Contemporary with a classic twist, with more than a nod to the New Forest location, with rough-hewn wood furniture and forest motifs alongside classy circular booths – all contributing to a feel that is as special as the food. Not at all cheap, but very nice indeed.
