Beautiful hotel and restaurant. We were impressed with the food ordered. The restaurant was quite busy as it was a Sunday. We ordered the Sunday roast 3 turkeys and 1 beef. The food portion is huge and delicious. The staff were helpful and friendly.

This was our 2nd visit here after dining here 12 months ago. We can’t fault this place at all. Everything is well run and the food is fantastic

So, first we went to another local restaurant, which didn't have a Christmas dinner ready at lunch time the first day of offering. Anyway, we thought we'd try and get in Nelson's, even though we knew it would be quite busy. The car park was quite full, but even though we had come in two cars, we found parking and went in. Christmas lunches were in full effect and the dine area was full and we couldn't get a party of three until 90 mins later. However, we could sit and be served in the lounge straight away, so we did that. We had the turkey dinner pictured and it was delicious, lots of food and everything was cooked to perfection. The gravy was lovely too. We then had a chocolate and toffee cheesecake for dessert and that was also delicious and a decent portion with a little scoop of ice cream. The staff were great and our waiter had an attention to detail I wasn't expecting. Overall I would recommend highly. My preconceived thoughts were it's going to be pretentious, but it really wasn't.
