Dining
Dining Al Fresco in the Woods One of the things we love to do in the forest, is to cook over the open fire. Food always seems to taste so much better We cook dishes that one would not expect to find in the woods but by combining creativity, fresh locally sourced ingredients, an open fire and a whole load of passion, this enables us to offer a unique dining experience the students love Dining Options: Tea/Minerals/Coffee. Bespoke Dining options include a Brazilian BBQ with Picanha/BBQ Platter/Forest Burgers/Buffet Lunch/Salad/Oven Baked Pizza /Quesadillas/Pasta & More
