Then he wouldn't walk out of the private room we had in the restaurant because I had a 'Nice Rack'. Absolutely disgusting. After staring for what felt like 10 minutes, He started choking the chicken while staring at my figure. His weiner was tiny. 0/10 NEVER EAT HERE.

We were greeted by the best Daniel ever and I can not emphasize how kind, warm and welcoming the Serendipity team is. Definitely have to recommend the tasting menu it is amazing. We felt more like we were visiting friends and family then staying at a hotel.

I haven't stayed at the Brackenborough Arms (I live too near to it to justify that) but friends who have tell me that the rooms are also beautiful. I can only comment on the restaurant! And it's stunning. We've had mixed experiences actually eating there - a big family dinner (set menu) was delicious and very good value, but when I went there a few weeks later with a friend for Sunday lunch and sat in the bar, rather than the restaurant, we were disappointed when her fish and chips arrived adorned by a large bluebottle fly, and staff were less than apologetic - and we still had to pay the bill! However, when we complained after the event, the manager was wonderfully helpful and actually offered us a free meal to compensate for the one with a fly garnish. So with a bit of prompting, I felt their customer service was excellent. And apart from that meal, all the food I've ever eaten there has been delicious, well presented, served quickly and well priced. Definitely a good location for a first datealthough it's not walking distance from the town, so factor in the cost of a taxi!

The Kings Head really isnt my idea of a good night out and we usually only pop in there for one or two drinks before heading onto somewhere else. On a friday night it is karioke night, but the majority of what happens at the Kings is live gigs of varied kinds of music ~ ok if you like that sort of thing i guess! The pub itself is clean and tidy, tables are cleared of empty glasses quickly and the staff are well mannered and polite. I would say the pub is in need of a good redecoration but after you have had a few its not something you really take much notice of anyway! The drinks are pretty cheap, which is why we always used it as a starting point for our nights out!
