Why Travelers Notice It
The Woodsman at a glance
Reserve The Woodsman when the meal should match a theatre night with British game, fish, vegetables, and fire-led cooking rather than serve as a rushed gap before curtain-up.
The kitchen sources British ingredients, uses game from managed estates and fish from Cornish day boats, and cooks with wood and charcoal from local sources.
