Dine With Us

Delicious dishes, freshly cooked

Fernhill

We Love Food

We are lucky to live in a region with fresh produce in abundance and artisan producers of cheese, wine, beers, vodka, rum and gins within 10 miles of our doorstep.

It’s safe to say much of our produce has travelled less miles than our guests!

We make all our dishes on-site, with many gluten-free and dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan choices so everyone can relax and enjoy a tasty treat regardless of their dietary requirements

For Everyone

7 Days a Week Dining

We provide a daily changing menu, prepared from whole foods, 7 days a week. 

We’re proud to operate a zero waste kitchen, so we take your menu choices in advance, and we only prepare what we need.

It’s wonderful to know what delicious treats you will enjoy that evening, while you’re out for the day exploring!

You confirm your table and provide your menu choices by 4pm, then relax and enjoy your day with the anticipation of your menu selection that evening.

There is the perfect opportunity to relax in the bar before dinner, talk about your day, and plan tomorrow’s adventure. We sit down in the dining room at 7pm.

You are welcome to join us for dinner even if you aren’t staying at Fernhill – simply call us to book a table, subject to availability.

Fernhill

All Our Food Is Locally Sourced​

It is safe to say that much of our food has travelled less miles than our guests! We prioritise local first, organic and Fairtrade where possible.

Our menu is made in-house – from delicious black bean burgers to the kid’s gluten free chicken goujons. 

We Cater for Special Diets

We understand how stressful it can be when someone else is preparing your food and you have a specific dietary requirement.

Our menus accommodate Gluten-free, Dairy-free, Vegetarian and Vegan as standard, plus we’re happy to adapt menus for more specific dietary requirements with advance notice.

Relaxed Time

Afternoon Tea

We serve cream tea and afternoon tea every Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 2pm

Book in advance to enjoy a relaxed few hours indulging in this national institution in our peaceful surroundings.

Kids Matter Too

Children’s Menu

Well behaved children are always welcome in our bar and dining room, and we’re happy to provide a child sized portion for many dishes on our menu

In addition, our children’s menu is offered for smaller appetites with simpler tastes. It includes family favourites to help make eating away from home easier for everyone.

We make each dish in-house so we know your children are enjoying the same great quality as you are.
