We are passionate about using the freshest local produce including beef from our own farm here in Morwenstow, and lamb, pork, salad and vegetables from nearby farms.
Local shoots provide us with all the pheasant, venison and other game we require and our fishmonger supplies us with seafood caught in these waters

Two new heated exterior thatched Dining Huts - each seating around 8 to 12 - are available and can be booked. The owners, Rob and Edwina Tape have also taken on The Old Wainhouse Inn - on the A39 south of Bude. Details are to be found on the Eat Out Cornwall web site.
"The Bush Inn has a long history of providing hospitality dating back to 950AD. It is believed at that time to have been a monk's rest for those on the pilgrimage route from Wales to Spain who crossed Cornwall between the North Devon ports and Fowey.
In the main bar you can still see the celtic piscina cut from serpentine stone and a monastic cross is carved into the flagstone floor by the door leading to the garden.
Situated in the middle bar is the Leper's Squint; a tiny window through which scraps of food were passed to the needy of the parish.
In later years we are told the squint was used as a lookout, the Bush Inn having become a popular haunt for the wreckers and smugglers who operated on this treacherous part of the north Cornish coast and who naturally, were anxious to avoid the Revenue officers!
