In a chocolate-box Cotswolds village, a former doctor’s surgery has been converted into the House of George W. Davies hotel, named after its fashion designer owner – the man who founded Next and George at ASDA. It’s no surprise, then, that the hotel’s restaurant has a certain style, with a modern country house vibe and a distinct Nordic feel to the clean, contemporary design. The cooking offers well-balanced dishes which may look simple but come with hidden depths, as with chicken breast enhanced by a buttery jus.

Situated inside the stylish Dormy House Hotel and tucked away behind its main restaurant is this intimate dining room that features just 12 seats around a U-shaped kitchen counter. The "chef's table" style experience is well-paced and anchored by the chefs, who serve and explain their dishes with an affable air. Top quality ingredients are at the heart of the colourful, creative dishes, with some well-chosen wine pairings to accompany. Confit egg yolk with parmesan custard is something of a speciality and ever-present on the menu.

The cooking is generous in both size and flavour, with a roll-call of pub classics and stand-out desserts like the terrific apple and walnut crumble. Several themed evenings offer particularly great value for money, be it ‘pie night’ or ‘steak and a pint’.
