Review on Bowlish House, The Cape Cod Room

This very elegant Grade 2 listed Georgian Palladian House was once home to Stephen Clark (of Clarks Shoes) who, in 1964, bought the property and spent a very considerable sum of money in major restoration work. Now a 50 cover restaurant with 4 en-suite rooms Bowlish House is owned by Darren Carter and Jason Goy.

Lunch is from the set lunch menu with a traditional roast on the first Sunday of each month. For dinner, dine in style from the two or three course Table D'Hôte menu with a good choice of starters and main courses but you will need to leave room for one of the delicious desserts.

All produce is local and freshly prepared, giving you great quality and flavours at an affordable price. Bowlish House offers a home from home evening with a warm and friendly welcome.

    Sunday lunch

    Delicious lunch, good menu choice , good value for money. White linen tablecloth and napkins, fresh flowers on table and sparkling clean glasses. Good service . Our table overlooked the well presented garden. Very relaxing in comfortable lounge for pre lunch drinks and coffee.
