Alternatively you’ll also be able to order during your stay, using the order form you’ll find in the Larder. Orders placed before 7pm each day will be available to collect from the Barn the following morning from 8am for breakfast, or from 6.30pm for supper. Please let us know if you have any food allergies or intolerances.
Pizza making in the barn will happen every Monday night throughout the school holidays subject to a minimum of 8 being interested. Outside of those times by arrangement at reception.
You can book the Lodge for your exclusive use in advance of your stay by emailing kate@brownscombe.co.uk or arrange through reception.
Brownscombe Larder, Lodge and Barn
At Brownscombe as well as catering for yourself you can let us do the cooking for you and treat yourself during your stay. Order your food the night before from our Larder and get the kids to pick up your breakfast in the morning or a delicious casserole for supper. According to our guests feedback “Kate’s cooking is highly recommended” “absolutely scrummy casserole, breakfast and bbq!” and “the morning croissants are yum!”. Meals that serve 4 adults would also feed 2 adults and 3 children, as they are generous portions.
Book into our Lodge for a night and get the whole place to yourself to enjoy a cheese fondue or cook your steak on hot rocks. We have a new large Barn available to use for Pizza nights and for larger groups, let the children add their own ingredients and watch it cook in the wood fired oven. If you want to travel further afield both our local pubs are within a 5 minute drive or 20 minute yomp away.
Our Larder shop also stocks a small range of camping essentials, delicious local produce, drinks, picnic snacks and ice creams.
