Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This was held on the last Sunday in the month and was always an excellent meal. Nice people in a wonderful setting. It is a shame it has closed and I wish them well in retirement.

My partner and I had viewed and booked to have Yew Lodge host our wedding. We were originally going to have a registry office ceremony and the reception at yew Lodge, however the owners pressured us into having the whole day at the venue which...meant more expensive fees for the registrar and we would have to give notice again. We rearranged the legal bits and let yew Lodge know and asked a few more questions all which were answered promptly. No less than 4 days after we received an email advising that they were cancelling our booking as they were closing the business as of 31st December. Not even the courtesy of a phone call. They did not think to mention this in our conversation a few days.prior. This shambles of a business would have known the state of the business when we booked at the end of October and should not have taken our booking. This has left us over 600 pounds out of pocket on an already tight budget for our wedding in 6 months time.More

We had our golden wedding lunch at Yew Lodge and it was the perfect place for it. The staff were so helpful and the food was delicious. A table was set up for photos, cards and presents and a beautiful antique silver cake stand was...supplied for our cake. The tables were lovely, adorned with golden roses and name place cards. The owner even helped me wrap up pieces of cake for everyone to take home! We were fortunate with the weather and we spent much of the time outside. I cannot fault the place or the people!More

Always a welcome like being part of the family. Food was terrific - especially the perfectly cooked roast beef and all the homemade desserts. Very efficient a d friendly service from the young team. An added bonus on sunny day in May was a stroll...round the grounds and woods to take in the beautiful collection of rhododendrons and azaleas.

This is an ideal venue for families, especially multi-generational ones, to enjoy an excellent meal in beautiful surroundings. The experience extends beyond the meal as the owners open up their garden to enjoy for the afternoon.

Yew Lodge serves Sunday Lunches once each month to the General Public on a pre-booking basis. This Country House is set in its own spacious grounds and whilst normally lunch is taken in the main house, during the Pandemic a larger banqueting suite in the...grounds is used for social distancing. Food is all freshly prepared in the adjacent kitchens and served by a young, polite and enthusiastic waiting staff, overseen by the welcoming proprietors. Bars are available for drinks and with an extensive wine list. Guests are welcome to stroll in the grounds and to linger having lunched. Smart casual dress is required and for those who enjoy eating out this is an excellent venue to visit. What's not to like.More

This place is only open one Sunday a month for lunches but it is a very nice lunch. The owners are wonderfully welcoming and friendly making you feel like guests rather than customers. The young waitresses were all very smart and polite too. Due to...Covid 19 restrictions everyone dined in the large wedding room which was smart but more suited to a evening event than lunch. The menu was just 2 courses and simple just as a Sunday lunch should be. I had the roast beef and it was magnificent. The vegetables were all brought to the table in a single bowl for diners to serve themselves which meant by the time everyone had picked out the bits they wanted it was only luke warm which was a shame. The desert menu was also simple and were all traditional housewives favourites for a Sunday roast adding to the family feel unfortunately there was nearly an hour between the two courses suggesting the kitchen can only serve one course at a time. Guests are encouraged to stay after lunch and enjoy the grounds which are lovely but not as well maintained as they deserve to be. Overall, considering the Covid restrictions, certainly worth a visit and good valueMore
