www.theokeoverarms.co.uk/Travels continued Posted by sian north wales on 2/6/2004 Gf board Sorry me again. We went to the inlaws in Nottingham and on the way back stopped for a bar meal at the Okeover Arms in Mapleton near Ashbourne.(Advert in Crossed Grain) Despite the chef not being there we had a brilliant meal of steak pie, chunky chips(homemade) peas and a jug of gravy. Hubby managed to "force" a pudd of GF raspberry franzipan tart which was gorgeous- I sneaked a taste. A good selection of GF meals normally and assuming the chef returns! www.okeoverarms.co.uk/

Just returned from a holiday staying in the village next to the Okeover. I can confirm that it IS under new management and no longer does some of the wonderful gf dishes that Vicki McQueen used to do (steak pie, bakewell tart etc). However they still do cater for gf diets and even supply gf bread with the meal. The menu looks impressive but the night we went there the food was pretty awful - soemone said that the chef was on holiday and other people we spoke to said the food is usually good....
I believe that Vicki also used to supply the Chatsworth farm shop - again so sign of any special gf food there now (they do some but the usual range of Village Bakery cakes etc).
