Warm Hospitality
A warm and friendly
atmosphere prevails at Holmby House. Guests arriving at teatime can
expect tea and homemade cakes taken, either in front of a log fire in
the drawing room in the winter, or on one of the terraces in the
summer. A three course dinner (needs to be booked in advance)
is available, served either in the elegant dining room or in the
attractive spacious garden room in the Courtyard, or even
alfresco on the swimming pool terrace.
Your hostess Sally Wass is an aficionado of
Claire Macdonald's cooking so guests can be assured of good food made
from local produce and homegrown vegetables. Freshly baked
organic bread and warm croissants, specialalities
of the Sibford Ferris village shop, in addition to an
extensive breakfast choice await guests in the mornings. Any
special dietary requirements can be accommodated.
Garden Room, Courtyard
For eating out, a number of
good local pubs and resturants can be recommended, in particular The
Wykham Arms (www.wykhamarms.co.uk)
which is highly rated and situated in the village. For those who wish to tour the beautiful surrounding
countryside and visit the idyllic Cotswold villages, hampers can be
organised.
