Breakfast is buffet-style and includes home-made granola, freshly baked croissants, seasonal fruit, yogurt, tea and freshly brewed coffee. Full English breakfast is available on request (€8).

Meals can be eaten in the dining room or in fine weather – most of the summer - can be eaten outside in the garden.

Evening meals (from €25) are usually three or four courses (with coffee) and can include such favourites as:

     Twice baked goat’s cheese soufflé with

     red onion marmalade     

     Cooked oysters served on a bed of 

     sautéed leeks with a parmesan topping

     Mixed seafood salad with Thai dressing

                                               Chicken in a Pineau des Charentes sauce

Seared salmon served on a fennel and tomato gratin with a chive sauce

Lamb served with an orange and mint sauce

 Coffee cognac pannacottas servedwith flambéed strawberries

Trio of chocolate - mousse, ice cream and dipped strawberries

Apple cheesecake served with toffee sauce

All our sauces, chutneys and marmalades are home-made, even the ice-cream.

We take pride in using locally sourced ingredients such as fresh fish and oysters from Charente Maritime, lamb from Limousin, and cheeses,  meat, vegetables and salads from the market inJarnac or the nearby farm shop. Meals include  a couple of glasses of local wine (red, white or rosé). In addition to serving French food and local specialities we also like to use recipes that we have collected during our travels overseas.
