New restaurant to open at Coworth Park this September

The Dorchester Collection’s luxury country house hotel and spa, Coworth Park, has announced the opening of a new restaurant, Woven by Adam Smith, which is due to be unveiled on 8 September 2022.

It is reported that Woven will offer diners an “unforgettable” culinary experience, in a new space created by Martin Hulbert Design, and set in 240 acres of parkland.

The restaurant concept and design of the space is said to have deep roots in the “idyllic” Berkshire countryside that surrounds the hotel, which is just 45 minutes from London.

Chef Adam Smith will be tasked with creating dishes inspired by classic flavours and techniques, presented in fresh, creative, and contemporary ways. According to the hotel,the finest produce will also be used throughout the restaurant acting as inspiration for the seasonally changing menus.

The main dining room seats 44 guests, with the adjoining conservatory seating 14 and providing views over Coworth Park’s grounds. The design is said to be theatrical and contemporary yet “woven seamlessly” into the fabric of its Georgian manor house setting and the surrounding Berkshire countryside.

In addition, the hotel’s surroundings and Smith’s new menus will reportedly inform the drinks programme at Woven, featuring seasonal cocktails and many English wines alongside “leading” international producers.

Smith said: “A memorable dining experience is created by so much more than the dishes that we eat. With Woven, we will be pushing the boundaries of creativity and excellence in food, but also in drinks, service and design to create a restaurant that delights both destination diners and hotel guests alike.

“Stories and knowledge from my entire career, alongside inspiration from the idyllic landscape, will be woven into the menus, and the dishes, whilst refined, will be presented in playful and contemporary ways. Woven has been many years in the making, and we cannot wait to welcome our first guests.”
