The Priest House

Surprisingly modern for such a historic setting – the Norman mill tower of the Priest House, & the water wheels, are all that is left of a mill complex that was mentioned in the 1086 Domesday Book. Now a country house hotel, the restaurant serves contemporary British cooking in atmospheric surrounds. Tuck into seared sea scallops with boudin blanc & cardamom lemon oil ahead of organic Suffolk pork cooked two ways served with fondant potato, glazed salsify & rosemary jus, with Bakewell tart & vanilla seed custard for afters. Secluded, yet four & a half miles from East Midlands Airport.
