Snipe & Taurus - Fine Food and Great Company

Everybody knows that good food is an important part of a holiday. We take great pleasure in planning an appetising menu that caters for everyone’s needs and tastes, using good quality local ingredients to create enticing, yet simple dishes. If you have special dietary requirements we can easily accommodate you as long as you let us know at the time of booking your stay with us.

Breakfast – either keep it light or set yourself up for a day’s lock wheeling! There is a selection of cereals, toast, home made preserves, fresh fruit and hot or cold drinks. There is also a cooked option served everyday with choices ranging from bacon & eggs to kippers & hash browns.

Lunch – an uncomplicated two course meal; perhaps home made soup with warm freshly baked crusty bread, a traditional ploughman’s or home made quiche or sandwiches with a selection of salads.

Dinner – a leisurely informal affair. Four courses in a relaxed atmosphere round the large dining table. A complimentary glass of carefully chosen wine is served with your meal, and further beverages are available from the bar at all times. Here are some favourites from our dinner menu:

Grilled goats cheese served with onion marmalade on a bed of fresh salad

Home made pate with warm crusty bread

Smoked salmon served on oatcakes, with cream cheese and lemon
