Botanist Restaurant

Head out towards Crossford and you'll find yourself at Keavil House, a proper country retreat that feels worlds away from the town centre bustle. The Botanist is their restaurant, and it's where they take their food seriously—the kind of place where you settle in for the evening and let the kitchen show you what they're about. It's not stuffy, mind you. The setting's elegant without being fussy, housed in the grounds of the hotel itself, and there's genuine warmth to how they approach things. You're looking at a restaurant that sources properly and plates with intention, the sort of spot you'd book for an anniversary or when you want to feel properly looked after.
