The Dining Room
 


The food served in the dining room at Jenkin Hill Cottage, whether the hearty Cumbrian breakfast or the four course evening meal, is prepared using the best of fresh free-range local produce whenever possible. Our eggs are from our own hens or from a local free-range farm. Careful selection of ingredients is a very important factor in food preparation, especially when meeting special dietary requirements.

We are able to cater for almost all special diets, but specialise in gluten free

, where our puddings are a real favourite with our regular guests!
