A fine-dining restaurant in Stone is preparing for its 10th Christmas season with a new December menu. 

Little Seeds, which has been recognised in the Michelin Guide, will be offering a selection of seasonal dishes created by Chef Patron Jake Lowndes. 

Co-owner Sophie Lowndes said: "We are standing by our ethos of using foraged ingredients and ingredients from the garden. 

"It's not necessarily your traditional Christmas menu, but is is wintry, warming and seasonal food in the Little Seeds style."

The set menu will be available at £45 per person, and the tasting menu will be available for £90 per person. 

There is also an A La Carte menu available from Thursday through to Saturday from 6.30pm to 8.30pm.

It will then be open from 6:30pm to 11pm on 22 December and 23 December before opening for lunch on Christmas Eve from 12:30pm to 4pm.

Sophie added: "This year is a special one for us at Little Seeds because this is out 10th Christmas.

"It is a big anniversary for us so it will be great to see lots of regulars and new faces as well." 

The restaurant also offers a private dining space for eight to 12 guests at no extra charge. 

The private dining room is located upstairs with a private bar and allows guests to choose their own music.
