A Taste of the Cartford…
At the heart of our operation is a restaurant now recognised with two AA Rosettes — a reflection of our commitment to quality, our surroundings, and a strong sense of place.
Seasonal Menus
Rooted in Lancashire, with a nod to France — our menus are rustic, seasonal, and all about flavour. We work closely with local producers and grow ingredients in our riverside garden, creating a style of cooking that reflects our landscape and our values: honest, thoughtful, and distinctly Cartford.
Afternoon Tea
Our afternoon tea is a thoughtful take on a time-honoured tradition, served against the backdrop of the Lancashire countryside and featuring a seasonal selection of sandwiches, scones and patisserie.
Sunday Lunch
Our Sunday Lunch builds on a much-loved tradition, with locally sourced roast meats, generous trimmings, and classic puddings — all brought together with a touch of Cartford flair.
Restaurant Spaces
Dining at The Cartford Inn takes place across a series of distinctive spaces, each with its own character but united by the same warm, familiar charm. From cosy corners to light-filled rooms, every space is a careful blend of old and new—modern in style, traditional in spirit, and always relaxed.
“ To describe The Cartford Inn as an undiscovered gem would merely be to shine a light on my own ignorance”
