老史密斯小屋

Set on the banks of the River Wyre, this fine-looking inn is a continually developing business with many strings to its bow. The operation includes a deli, art gallery, farm shop, greenhouses and boutique bedrooms enlivened by the owner's eye for interior design. The cooking, meanwhile, is hearty, gutsily flavoured fare with a comfort food quality – meaning you could start off with French onion soup and finish with rice pudding. If you're feeling indulgent, check out the 'Premeditated Gluttony' section of the menu populated by the likes of fruits de mer and lobster thermidor.
