The Olive Branch Country Inn, Rutland

It was our 2nd stay at the Olive Branch all I can say is superb, the rooms, food and attention to detail are unparalleled. Being Coleaic one is always slightly concerned when eating out, not at the Olive Branch, the kitchen cooking arrangements where fully explained, and a special thank you for the gluten free fish and chips at lunchtime which where specially prepared, nothing is too much trouble. Thank you see you soon Regards Rod and Ann-Marie Thorn

Perfect experience all round! We stayed at the chocolate suite in beech house and it was so comfortable and clean with tasty teas and coffee at our disposal. Very accessible being on the ground floor with a wet room included in the bath room. The food at the olive branch was sublime. We both have coeliac disease and I have allergies to nuts and shellfish, so it was a great surprise to have so much choice on the menu! My first ever steak tartare and sweetbreads and I’m fully convinced by both dishes. Everything was nice and fresh, seasonal, and a clear thought of sustainability. The wine selection by the glass was amazing too, lots of different styles and price ranges for everyone. Finally, that aged beef fat truffle with salt and passionfruit blew my mind, so much flavour. Don’t think I’ll ever have a better petit fours than that!
