A Breakfast with Rooms

We believe that breakfast is the most important meal of the day and love coming up with inventive menus to get your day off to a great start. Enjoy a 4-course tasty, healthy, yet indulgent breakfast on our relaxing veranda, weather permitting, or in our light-filled Breakfast Room.

We have a host of fabulous local suppliers and work hard to keep our carbon footprint as low as possible and to source organic ingredients. 

In particular, we love coming up with recipes that are delicious and gluten-free. All of our food is home-made so we know exactly what has gone into the dishes that we serve. As such we are well placed to deal with speciality diets (although some advance warning is very much appreciated - see Dietary Sensitivities).

HAND-ROASTED CRANKHOUSE ARTISAN COFFEE

We know that a great coffee makes for a great day. So we’ve brought in the experts to ensure that your day gets off to the best possible start. Dave at Crankhouse Coffee expertly selects the very best beans to roast and blend locally. We grind fresh every morning for the best possible flavour.

TRILL Farm Veg

Past winners of the Young Organic Growers of the Year award, we are proud to source many of our vegetables from Trill Farm. Ashley and Kate's commitment to biodiversity and soil management aligns with our own ethos in eating well for the plant.
