“Just as food causes chronic disease, it can be the most powerful cure.” - Hippocrates
For us, healthy food is something that is not only extremely important but that which must be satisfying as well. For this motive, we seek to offer our customers not only great tasting meals but that which is healthy, nutritiously adequate and also visually appealing. The choice of vegan best represents these characteristics.
Our principles are simple: to have our ingredients as whole foods with as much organic as is possible.
We use only wholemeal flour; cane sugar and sugars from coconut flowers, agave syrup or raw honey. We don't use MSG or powdered stock. A deep-fryer has never seen the inside of our kitchen.
Whilst processed foods are convenient and tasty but do not offer much in the way of nutrition and are therefore excluded from our cuisine. Nutritious foods give a sense of satisfaction and provide high and lasting energy levels without weighing you down. What could be a better way to prepare for the activities of the great outdoors?!
Bar/Restaurant
Upon arrival at our bar you will find a vast selection of organic products as well as home-made biscuits, cakes and desserts; wonderful hot chocolate made from real chocolate; a hot tea from our fine selection which we have in either loose-leaf (personally chosen by our good friend Oli, our Berlinese tea supplier) or in bags, as you wish.
Our lunch menu varies from day to day, season to season, where you can choose amongst: our home-made, wholemeal focaccia served with different salsas; exquisite soups; tasty pastas; main courses of pasta; oven-baked polenta; and the not to be missed desserts (especially worth trying the raw ones). We try to always have something on-hand suitable for those with food allergies and intolerances so we ask that you please inform our staff prior to selecting.
Our decision not offer sandwiches or "fast-foods" is tied to the fact that we prefer our customers to be seated in front of a well thought out and prepared dish to enjoy along with the amazing panorama and ambient. Our natural still spring water comes free of charge.
Lunch Service runs from 12:00 - 14:30 daily.
Dinner & Breakfast
The half-board accommodation is comprised of:
A vegan dinner served for all at 19:00 with free water on the table. A fixed menu with first course, main course and dessert with tea or coffee offered afterwards. All food is carefully prepared on the premises by our kitchen staff. We strive to provide a complete dinner that is well balanced. We are happy to cater for those with food allergies, intolerances or specific needs. Please inform us when booking or immediately upon arrival to help us give you the best possible service.
Breakfast, as the name implies, is a fundamental meal, especially when you have a full day out in the mountains ahead of you. We offer a substantial buffet breakfast which is generally comprised of: a choice of cereals; dried fruits and nuts; home-baked bread; jams; yoghurt (dairy-free); fruit and organic apple juice. You will be welcomed by one of our staff at the bar, ready to prepare you a tea or coffee to help kick-start the day.
Breakfast service is from 7:00 - 9:00
