The Dining Room is centred around a spectacular spiral staircase which encloses the wood-fired bread oven. Delegates can dine downstairs, where they can see their lunch cooked in the gleaming open kitchen, or in the Upper Dining Room which offers superb views across the countryside.

Doors open onto the tree-lined courtyard or the Physic Garden, perfect for alfresco dining or refreshment. The licensed Organic bar offers a selection of fruity red wines, crisp white wines, bottled ales, lagers and beers and a range of refreshing soft drinks. All the food we serve is directly linked to what’s growing on our own farm and gardens. Our menus reflect the changing seasons and we always use organic, natural, wholesome ingredients, avoiding pre-prepared goods.

We freshly grind our wheat into flour for making the breads and cakes served in the Dining Room. The flour mill is in the centre's shop, where organic meats, chutneys and preserves, as well as a range of books and gifts, are available for browsing and purchase by conference centre delegates.
Our own mineral water, drawn from 300 feet below our fields, is served at Sheepdrove.
Our red wine is from Le Domaine des Savarines, a small biodynamic vineyard in South West France owned by Peter and Juliet Kindersley’s daughter Rosie and her French husband and chef Eric Treuillé.

Diners help themselves from bel cuisine dishes laid out on our oak Farmhouse tables in the Dining Room.
Portable morning food to jump-start the day (Bacon, sausage & scrambled egg served on homemade farmhouse rolls, muffins, orchard fruit basket (when in season), fruit juice, tea and coffee)
A Sizzling Hog Roast or Barbeque – truly an outdoor feast just perfect for the summer or other seasonal menus in winter.
To make the most of seasonal produce, we will confirm your menu no more than two weeks in advance. It is important that you confirm numbers and special dietary requirements no later than one week before your event.
We have very carefully selected local suppliers of organic produce that we have inspected and trust. We are very keen to support local producers which keeps our food miles to a minimum.
