Northcote Restaurant

Inspector comments
"Solid regional cooking at an iconic northern gem."
Overview
Nestled in the Ribble Valley hills on the edge of the Forest of Bowland, a designated National Landscape, well-established hotel Northcote is a wonderful base for anyone who likes to get out and about. A gastronomic beacon in Lancashire, Northcote Restaurant is justly famous as one of the best places to eat in the North, with fantastic local produce used to very good effect. The original much-extended red-brick Victorian manor is comfortably decorated in a relaxed modern style, with contemporary artworks and elegant furnishings. It’s a lovely place to stay and the highlight, of course, is the food.
