Because we offer so much choice and Karen works singlehandedly as chef, waitress and chief washer upperer, we do ask guests if they don't mind completing a menu the night before. We don't mind if you change your mind overnight but it does help Karen get organised ( and anything that helps with this has got to be a good thing )
If there's something that you'd particularly like for breakfast that isn't on the menu please let us know in advance of your stay and we'll do our best to serve it up for you.
Please also let us know if you're on a special diet and require any particular foods, so we can have them in for your stay. Our milk is semi skimmed and it's always butter and not margarine
