The Countryman, Daventry

We were in Daventry for tea tonight, staying at a hotel in nearby Staverton ahead for a wedding do we're at tomorrow.

We arrived late, about 8.30pm and asked for a recommendation of there to eat from the hotel receptionist. She directed us to a pub in the nearby village so we headed there. Weary after our three hours on the motorway, we were delighted to receive one of the warmest ever welcomes from the landlord who sorted us out with a couple of drinks during our short wait for a table.

The food - lasagne for me and duck for James - was excellent, a real treat after our long journey. Washed down with a lovely bottle of red, we retired happy but missing our boy who is with his grandparents.
