We say…
Ruddington is a small yet busy village roughly ten minutes’ drive South of Nottingham, close to Clifton and easily accessible from Junction 24 of the M1 as well as Nottingham Airport and rail station. The award-winning Country Cottage Hotel and Restaurant sits neatly on Easthorpe Street, less than a minutes’ walk from the main high street.
The Country Cottage Hotel and Restaurant is housed within a carefully renovated 17th century house that boasts 22 individually designed, en-suite rooms as well as private hire function rooms and an award-winning restaurant. The Courtyard Restaurant provides a light and airy space with an informal atmosphere but plenty of wow-factor. Vaulted ceilings, crisp white linen and views across the courtyard and wishing well ensure that this 100 cover restaurant is sophisticated enough to host a wedding booking whilst comfortable enough to enjoy a traditional Sunday roast with the family. A number of small lounge areas provide guests with the perfect place to sit, relax and peruse the menus and enjoy a drink before settling down to their meal.
The menu has an array of mouth-watering British dishes on offer, with some taking their inspiration from further afield. To start, the goats cheese tart filled with red onion compote and oven-baked asparagus with hollandaise sauce is the perfect choice for vegetarians whilst the breaded king prawns with a sweet chilli dip are a fantastic alternative and are both generous in size and flavour. For mains there is an abundance of dishes that use produce sourced no more than 20 miles away! The 8oz Donnington sirloin steak with field mushrooms and frilled tomatoes is a fantastic choice for meat lovers by the Derbyshire lamb three ways; lamb chops, lamb rump and lambs liver on minted mash with homemade onion gravy, is a must try! On Sundays, the Courtyard serve their highly popular Sunday roast with all the trimmings, which is incredible value for money and perfect for a family get-together.
The Courtyard Restaurant at The Country Cottage Hotel Ruddington is a warm, family-friendly and family-run restaurant that offers delicious food at value for money prices in stunning surrounding. A must visit for those in and around the area.
