Farm-to-Fork principles

Our menus are based on farm-to-fork principles, using seasonal produce from our walled garden, the orchard and the farm. Our walled garden is managed organically and includes a wide variety of fruit and vegetables including artichoke, kale, cabbage, potatoes, onions, herbs and seakale - native to Ireland, and grown under a cloche.

Fresh fish is supplied by local fishermen in Ballycotton, and meat is from local meat suppliers, with menus created daily by the Head Chef, Dervilla O’Flynn.

The dinner experience concludes with a delightful Dessert Trolley, created daily by Head Pastry Chef, J.R. Ryall and his team. We serve herbal teas such as fresh mint and verbena grown in our gardens.
