Best of British

Cottons Hotel and Spa

Knutsford-based Cottons Hotel and Spa has launched a brand-new brasserie menu to celebrate the very best of British produce. Paying homage to the hotel’s northern roots, guests will be able to indulge in classic British fare with a modern fine-dining twist. From duck leg hash served with a homemade brown sauce and a Clarence Court egg to head chef Sean Noonan’s signature dish, Pendle Hill lamb ‘hotpot’ served with potato terrine and red wine jus, there’s something to suit everyone’s taste.
