Fern Cottage Speciality Winter Suppers -

Casseroles - "to warm the cockles of your Heart!"

If you’re arriving late, too tired to eat out, why not try one of our “Speciality” Supper Selection.  However, suppers for Friday must be pre-ordered before your arrival at Fern Cottage as we have to purchase items from our local producer.  Guests wanting suppers for Saturday and/or Sunday evening can order during their stay at Fern Cottage.

Please let us know if there is anything you would particularly like or if there is something you would like deleted from the menu.  All you need to do is to bring your own bottle of wine, then sit back and relax!  Wine glasses and a bottle opener are provided in your room.

Suppers are served in the Breakfast/Dining Room (which is solely for the use of guests)
