Really enjoyed lunch at Monty’s, part of The Montague Arms Hotel, at Beaulieu in the New Forest. This was my first visit, but will definitely be going back. The sea bass served with saffron potatoes and breaded mussels with caramelised shallot puree was beautifully presented. The chocolate mousse with raspberry sorbet and shortbread was delicious. We walked to Monty’s from Buckler’s Hard, a historical maritime visit – also worth a look.
