Whether you’re looking for something special or something more relaxed, dining at Rhinefield
House provides both. If it’s the something special you’re after, the Armada restaurant has to
be one of the most spectacular places to have an evening meal. If you require something more simple
and relaxing, the Lounge is the place for you.
You can also eat Al Fresco on our stunning terrace or in simple or luxury picnic hamper
form. For the more private among you, either enjoy all your meals in the privacy of your
bedroom, or make use of one of our stunning private dining rooms for your exclusive
use.
We are more than happy to welcome children into our hotel and hope they enjoy the variety of
dining as much as their parents. We provide high chairs in all our eating areas and each
restaurant has a children’s menu for the little ones to enjoy.

The Armada Restaurant
The Armada restaurant is a sight to behold. Attention to detail, as in the rest of the
house, is obvious with the magnificent carving of the Armada set in the fireplace. Having
taken nine years to complete and carved from one solid block of oak some four feet thick, whilst
you are sitting comfortably in your deep leather bound seat, feasting on the delights chef Kevin
Hartley has prepared, take a minute to appreciate the amazing amount of work that has gone into
creating such an ornate piece of work. Or maybe you prefer to concentrate on your soft goats
cheese salad with smoked pancetta and Fritham Heather honey, followed by perhaps a Deep Water
Monkfish with Chorizo, Cavallo Nero and Mussel Cannelloni, and Crispy Onion. If you are an
admirer of fine workmanship, you will be more than happy with both your surroundings and your
meal.
Don’t forget the Hand Picked philosophy though, that it is not only the amazing food and
surroundings which are a given with Hand Picked hotels. Our main aim is that our guests feel
relaxed and comfortable, and have fun, whatever their surroundings. We feel that we achieve
the highest quality food to enjoy in an amazing environment, yet with that home from home feel that
will leave you as relaxed as you can possibly be.
The Lounge
If you’re looking for a more relaxed meal, the Lounge at Rhinefield provides exactly
that. With a menu based predominantly on local and seasonal produce, you can enjoy lighter
meals in the lounge, a room relaxing yet characterful, enjoying a view of the gardens and
ponds.
The Lounge Bar
The lounge bar has a more modern contemporary feel with a cocktail bar mentality. Whether you
fancy a Caiphirina, a Coke, a Caffreys or a Cappuccino you will be able to sit and relax whilst
being served at your table. What more could you ask for?
Al Fresco Dining
Our Terrace provides a great opportunity for Al Fresco dining. Sit and watch the world go
by, listening to the hypnotic sound of the koi carp swimming around the pond whilst you have your
lunch or afternoon tea and even a glass of champagne if you fancy a treat.
If you prefer to wander the grounds or the surrounding area, we can also offer you a
basic or luxury picnic hamper to take away with you to enjoy.
