BREAKFAST
A stay away from home should be a treat. We love to create interesting breakfasts, with some delightful surprises in store. Breakfast is served each day between 08.00 and 09.30, using the best locally-sourced produce we can find.
We don't offer traditional bacon or sausages as our menu is meat-free, but you will find delicious vegetarian, vegan and fish dishes including a full English vegetarian breakfast (with homemade vegetarian sausages and herby potatoes), scrambled egg with smoked salmon or smoked trout (we are lucky to have wonderful smoked fish from the Upton Smokery, just a few miles away), colourful smoothie bowls packed with goodness, and overnight oats with berries. We go the extra mile to ensure that special diets are catered for - our selection means there is something special for everyone to enjoy. Meat-free is definitely not boring!
We ask you to tell us what dishes you would like for breakfast by 20.00 the evening before, so we can ensure that your breakfast is ready for you promptly in the morning. Have a look at our sample menu below.
