Rumleigh Farm will be running a bar with a specially selected wine list from Sovereign Wines in Tavistock and also cocktails for pre-lunch drinks. Alternatively you can still BYO. This is a shared dining experience and you'll be sitting on a table for eight.

My cookery is heavily influenced by French, Italian,  Spanish and Southern Mediterranean food cultures, with some modern twists. I am passionate about great taste and big on flavour, quality ingredients and local provenance. We don't do foams, pea shoots or whipped butter! *Vegetarians are catered for with equal gusto - just please indicate how many vegetarians are in your party when booking. Sorry, but we cannot cater for other specific diets or food allergies, due to nature of the event, the food we cook and the kitchen, which is not allergen free. Menu subject to change due to availability of ingredients.

You are very welcome to arrive up to an hour and half before the event to walk around the farm down to the river and/or enjoy pre-lunch drinks in the courtyard, subject to weather. We ask you to be seated ready for service at 1 pm. We'll close up at 4 pm-ish.

Please note there is a £1.20 booking service fee applied for this event. If you need to cancel your booking, please let us know 72 hours before the event and we will offer you a full refund. After 72 hours, we can only offer a refund if we are able to re-sell your ticket(s). If you can't come at the last minute, please do let us know so we don't lay up a place for you. Details about parking etc. will be sent prior to the evening.
