Eggs – Fenton Farm in Holcombe Regis, Devon

“Hens reared in traditional free-range flocks lay our eggs. Throughout the day, these hens have access to green pasture, and a natural vegetarian diet is fed to them. Indeed, the excellent conditions in which the hens are kept result in exceptional quality eggs with bright yolks and superior flavour. Independent delis, for instance, Mortimer & Bennett, Partridges, and De Beauvoir Deli, as well as 5 local Waitroses, sell them. In fact, two prestigious Small Producer of the Year awards, sponsored by Waitrose and the Times, have been won by our eggs, claiming the fresh food category & best newcomer award. Next, we also won the British Egg Council’s Small Producer Award. Finally, a Gold medal from Taste of the West has been won by our eggs.”
 

Sausages and Bacon – Little Oak Farm in Timberscombe, Somerset

“Little Oak Farm, our family-run business, is situated in the heart of Exmoor National Park, Somerset. We produce Rare Breed Middle White Pork from our own herd of Pigs. Naturally, our pigs are born and reared outdoors, and we farm in a traditional and ethical manner to ensure our pigs certainly have high welfare and live a good life while on the farm. Bossington Hall bacon is specially cut by us to their specific requirements.”

Tea & Coffee – Miles Tea and Coffee, Porlock, Somerset

The name Miles goes back a long way; in fact, tea has been blended by us since 1888. Over the years, gallons of tea and coffee have been drunk, so you can certainly say we know a thing or two about the humble cuppa – we like to think we’re finally able to describe ourselves as experts.
“You may have guessed that we’re pretty passionate about tea and coffee, and the Miles experience can’t be waited to be shared with you. If anyone knows how to make a good brew, it’s us. So pop the kettle on, put your feet up, and enjoy a moment with Miles.”

Bossington Hall operates as a Bed and Breakfast. To assist you with evening meals, a list of local restaurants can be emailed to you upon request, or Visit Exmoor has a website dedicated to food. Porlock Village is a short 1-mile easy walk away and offers a range of pubs, cafes, and restaurants to choose from. We often find that our award-winning breakfast is so filling that you may not even want lunch.
Although it’s not a full evening meal, a ‘Cheese and Nibbles’ buffet and a coffee maker are now offered by us, ideal if you have had a late lunch or just don’t want to leave!
If you wish to have a take-away, plates and cutlery are, of course, provided by us from the Coffee and Cheese buffet area. Alternatively, why not order a Hamper from Somerset Farmhouse to be delivered to us – you can pick your own here.
Finally, Corkage is not charged by us, despite having a reasonably priced Bar.
