About Us

 Since re-opening The Loughpool in February 2015, current chef owner Paul & wife Svenia Franklin have sympathetically refurbished the building creating a comfortable & warm interior.  

The black and white timbered cottage has  flagstones, rustic furniture & a wood burner which all add to the atmosphere and is surrounded by stunning Herefordshire countryside, bridleways and walks.  There is a pretty outside beer garden that is used for dining (weather permitting) or you can just enjoy a local pint whilst relaxing after a walk. 

Dogs are welcome inside & outside but must be kept on a lead. 

 Paul comes from a classically trained background having trained in France.  His style of cooking is Modern British & Classical French with an emphasis on taste & seasonality.  

He uses meticulously sourced local ingredients which are in abundance here in Herefordshire!  

His menu is constantly changing in line seasonality & local availability.

We also have an extensive wine menu to complement your dinner! 

Whether its a simple lunch time, cosy romantic or relaxed restaurant meal, maybe a family gathering or birthday, we can cater for all events.  

We have hosted small wedding parties (exclusive use), christenings, birthdays or any occasion you would like.  

Get in touch to see if we can help you!
