    The rejuvenative sanctuary of our Spa offers guests the opportunity to purify and detox. Our Executive Chef prides himself on showcasing local ingredients, particularly the vegetables, fruits and herbs that are grown in our gardens. Vegetarians are well catered for - try the local goats curd with courgette flowers and garden peas, followed by the tenderstem broccoli risotto and toasted almonds. Vegan options are available upon request.
