Eating at Yalbury Cottage

Jamie strongly believes in bringing cooking back to its purest form; choosing only the finest raw ingredients from the best suppliers in the county.

As Jamie says, "I want to produce creative but classical French menus for Yalbury Cottage, only the best seasonal British fish, meat, vegetables and dairy products available locally, so a lot of emphasis will be made on visiting suppliers in the area, searching for the best produce".

The lounge and restaurant

Situated in the oldest part of the cottage, the lounge and restaurant are full of character with oak-beamed ceilings and inglenook fireplaces and exposed stone walls.

Our award winning restaurant offers the finest of locally sourced produce from the surrounding area, in a relaxed and informal atmosphere.

We have a small but interesting cellar of wines, which will please even the most discerning of wine connoisseurs.

The Lounge is the perfect spot in which to enjoy a glass of champagne with canapés while perusing the menu or unwinding after dinner in front of the fire with a coffee and a vintage brandy and provides the perfect setting for an intimate dinner, private lunch party or family celebration.
