FORAGING
Spring & Autumn
We're partnered with local forager David Winnard to offer our guests a new hands-on, seasonal and sustainable foraging experience, that offers plenty of food for thought.
The spring offers a huge salad bar, just ripe for picking. You will learn to identify and forage wild garlic, wood sorrel, bitter-cress, cow parsley and bistort.
The Autumn brings mushroom season: if it's nice and damp there will be fungi galore, but if the weather has been dry there will be plentiful wild berries.
A half day experience, exploring the wild edible landscape around us is £175.
Please contact us for more information.
Walking
If you would like to explore the local area but don't quite have the skills or are worried about getting lost why not hire a walking guide during your stay?
