Food & Drink

The team will be serving our delicious new garden menu, including our much-loved stone-baked pizzas. The garden bar will be open, enjoy refreshing spritzes and Tequila cocktails by the jug alongside your favourite beers.

Our friends from our sister estate in Léoube, Provence will be hosting their travelling pop-up bar under the shade of our orchard trees, with tastings of the new season rosé.

And for pudding, an ice-cream stand will provide a cooling pitstop.
