36 On The Quay Hotel

47 South Street Emsworth Hampshire

There’s no doubt that Ramon and Karen Farthing are doing something right at this unassuming guesthouse. The restaurant, run by chef Ramon, has held onto a Michelin star for more than 15 years and it shows on the mainly seafood-orientated menu, backed by a formidable wine list of 250 labels. Try the smoked haddock served three ways (cullen skink, omelette Arnold Bennett and poached milk Florentine) or the aptly named turbot supreme. The meticulous attention to detail and quality is continued into the four charming guest rooms of this 17th-century building. Doubles from £100.
