Whether you are looking for somewhere to enjoy a romantic dinner with a festive twist, a venue that can cater for an office Christmas party or play host to your New Year’s Eve celebrations, take a look at thebestof Retford’s recommendations for the perfect venue this December.

 

Barkers at Clumber Park

 

Situated in the heart of Clumber Park, Barkers is the National Trust’s very first fine dining restaurant, and has already gained an exceptional reputation in the area. Combining history with contemporary décor; stylish surroundings with antiques and pictures from time gone by; guests have the choice of two dining rooms, as well as the option of a festive lunch or dinner.

 

Lunch is served from 12pm until 3pm, whilst Dinner is served on Friday and Saturday evenings between 6pm and 9pm. Both menus feature a whole host of festive treats, including Stuffing Filled Roast Turkey and a Chocolate and Black Cherry Christmas Log.

Moorhen Restaurant at Best Western The Charnwood Hotel

 

Just seven miles from Retford, the Moorhen Restaurant is located in the Best Western The Charnwood Hotel, and is well known for its sumptuous food and relaxed, friendly atmosphere.

 

The hotel itself is a hive of activity, with a huge range of events taking place throughout the year, so it is hardly a surprise that The Charnwood Hotel is playing host to a variety of festive Dinners, tribute nights and entertainment throughout December, Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year’s Eve.

The Drawing Room

 

Alternatively, why not opt to dine at the 2010 winners of Retford’s ‘Most Loved Business’?

 

The Drawing Room is located in what was once the Mayor’s house, and is open from Tuesday to Saturday from 9am until 4pm and Friday evenings from 6:30pm. Its ethos is simple – to offer restaurant-quality food at café prices.
