About

The festive fine-dining experience at Iford Manor offers a memorable evening complete with live music, festive decorations, and crackers. Guests are welcomed with a glass of champagne or G&T on arrival, followed by a six-course tasting menu, with the option of a paired wine flight.

Owner and Manager William Cartwright-Hignett personally greets each guest, while Head Chef Matthew Briddon introduces the menu, providing a detailed explanation of the culinary techniques used to craft the flavors.

The food philosophy is rooted in honesty, locality, and freshness, with many ingredients sourced from the Iford Manor walled garden or the surrounding Iford Estate. With a strong commitment to minimizing waste, every part of the animal or vegetable is utilized wherever safe. The distinctive flavors reflect this thoughtful approach, and the team hopes guests will notice the difference.
