Home cooked food at its best

Here at North Wheddon we love to cook and are proud of our reputation. Food is very much 'River Cottage' style. If we can not grow it or raise it here on the farm, you can be sure its locally sourced and the very best of quality. Through home smoked bacon to our own Aga baked breads you won't go hungry.

With a passion for traditional cooking and a desire to resurrect long lost recipes, we can offer you such temptations as salamis, air dried ham, sausages, all of course not only from our own animals but homemade as well.

With the addition of our very own smoker early on last year we now smoke all our own foods like bacon, chicken, cheese, hams and goose. Our personal favourite is applewood smoked goose breast, which is highly recommended.

If you would like to join in our dinner evenings please let us know before 10.00am or when checking in for the following night. We are open to non residents, but you’ll need to book.

We are of course now licensed and offer a rather good wine list!
