Returning to the house, a glass of champagne and canapés will be served either in the drawing rooms or out on the garden terrace, if the weather permits. Both options offer views across Gidleigh Park’s beautiful grounds.

Lunch will be a six-course bespoke menu, specially created for the day by chef Chris, with each course making the most of prime Devon produce. Lunch will include a glass of wine from Gidleigh Park’s award-winning wine cellar†, and will finish with a coffee and petits fours, either taken at your table or on the terrace.
