We love staying at The Stroud hill caravan park. The barn restaurant is lovely and the food is great. The one thing that could be improved on is the vegetarian/vegan menu as there was only a couple of vegetarian things to choose from and no choice at all on the specials menu.

Husband saw a mouse in the restaurant. Wouldn't go back.EDIT 2nd January 2022. I am editing this review after the restaurant's response. We immediately informed our server of the fact a mouse had just run up the wall near the kitchen. She said they had bait boxes and seemed unconcerned and doubtful of what he had seen. I would not post on social media without first informing the restaurant..

Lovely setting and building, friendly staff. Service a bit slow but ok. Food luke warm and slightly tasteless. Absolutely freezing even with jumpers on as all doors open.

Excellent food and service. Plenty of parking so will definitely be going again.

Very pleasant atmosphere, eat on or outside, there is also a balcony there, the food is great & more importantly it is frrshly cooked to order, everything you see on menu is all hand made, the front of house staff are fantastic at what they do

Wonderful friendly staff. All paying close attention to government guidelines. I chose the filet steak and asked for it rare and it was perfect, chips were amazing also. My partner had the barn chicken burger and it was cooked perfectly, so juicy. Would highly recommend couldn't fault our evening.

Sorry to say the standard of food has dropped to normal pub food most likely catering for the caravan park on site. We visited after having been so impressed many years before to be disappointed especially given the stars they have on this site. I had the burger and it wasn't anything special but price suggested it should be.

We arrived at 2pm for Sunday lunch and the restaurant was steady but not full. We were seated within five minutes and drink orders taken. Food orders were taken before drinks arrived, but only by a few minutes. We ordered food at 2:14pm. Our food arrived at 3:17pm. We were seated upstairs, no staff came to speak to us about the delay, refresh our drinks or update us. It was not a full/busy restaurant. It became apparent that people around us had also been waiting a long time, as 40 mins into our wait, the table near us recieved their meal and they had been there approx 30 mins before we'd arrived.When the food did arrive the waitress had the wrong dishes (after trying to serve it to another table) and she grew confused saying "I don't know what I'm doing". She ran off with the dishes only to return with them and confirm there were ours. She gave us the dishes the wrong way around and left again. The veg was served and I asked her if it was for one person. She said no, it was for two. I was shocked, it was a meagre portion. The waitress did immediately ask if we'd like more, which we accepted and she did bring it relatively quickly. The food was lukewarm, beef was very tough and overdone, the potatoes cold. We asked for more gravy and got a small jug with a teaspoons worth in. The Yorkshire puddings were burnt and crisped to a hollow.At the end we asked for the bill, it took the waitress 17 minutes to deliver it and we had to ask twice. We felt isolated and ignored upstairs, no serving staff and no communication. Had they just spoken to us, offered us drinks or served us attentively, we might not have felt so slighted. We ended up with only one drink each and no opportunity to order more. They could have easily made another £20+ out of us on drinks if only they'd served us properly.

Disappointingly slow service. Last night of Eat out to help out. Busy but not full. Arrived on time. Ordered one starter and two mains. Starter took 25 minutes and mains another 55 minutes. Desserts took another 25 minutes. Had to ask staff a couple of times. Don't know what the delays were. Food ok. Lovely venue. Probably wouldn't go again.
