I wouldn't recommend the Sash Guy. We had one window redone with double glazed sashes and had to get him back 3 times to refit it, either because he had left gaps that were so big I could push my finger outside, or it was too tight to open. I wasn't impressed with the sashes that were incredibly soft and fresh wood and I don't expect it to last. The window was primed before we received it, but he hadn't knotted any of the knots, so those are already showing through the painted window (Dulux weathershield). The glazing is poor and you can see plenty of dust inside the double glazed units. The muntin isn't fixed to the window (it is a single pane per sash, not two) and is already warping and coming away from the glass. He used excessive amounts of caulking, some of which were spread around the window and some furniture and it took a lot of work to get the the windows in a state where I could finish painting them. I definitely wouldn't use him again.

There’s also a step up into Maria’s - much smaller but you need to negotiate the step and door at the same time. Olivelli has more room and if I remember right the toilets are on the ground floor. A consideration if steps are an issue The Lordship might be an option. Noise is not usually an issue. We’ve enjoyed various meals there. The ladies toilets are on the same floor as the tables (the gents may be upstairs). The staff are always friendly
