The Gaddum is situated in the main building at the Brockhole National Park Visitors Centre. At the moment they are only open from 1100-1600 which is a shame as the menu seems to be more aimed towards fine dining and not the usual lunch menu you will find in the majority of Lake District restaurants. Unfortunately my wife and I were the only customers which is a shame as the food was excellent and very reasonably priced. My had a main course and a desert each plus drinks and it was just over £50. My wife had Bream Blackened cauliflower, pickled cauliflower, capers, seaweed. Followed by Banana ParfaitBanana jam, elderflower, summer berries, caramel .I had the Pan Roasted Duck BreastCrispy figs, fig & liquorice puree, Roscoff onion followed by the Brockholeâs Moss Covered WallDark chocolate creÌmeux, pistachio, caramelised white chocolate .If we had been to a high end restaurant anywhere in the Lakes in the evening and eaten this meal we would have been more than happy and would happily have paid twice the amount.I hope that the Gaddum becomes a success as the setting, service and food are wonderful.

This hotel now appears to be positively attempting to attract walkers and passing trade. As well as outdoor seating with fantastic views there is now a small indoor bar. We had coffee and flapjack which was very good. The sandwiches which other customers were eating were huge. The food and drink seemed to be quite expensive.Pros: Lovely settingCons: Expensive stop, especially for families. Would I visit again? Yes

We visited for an evening meal with Grandparents, parents and grandchildren. Craig the host was brilliant, explaining the menu and ethos of the farm perfectly. Nothing was too much trouble. Beautiful food in beautiful surroundings. Would defiantly recommend and would love to go back.
