The Wellington Arms

Blackboard menus and Edwardian furniture set the scene at this tiny whitewashed pub. Fields and woodland surround the large lawned garden, an ideal setting for the free-range chickens whose eggs are used in the kitchen. There are beehives too; herbs are grown just outside the kitchen door, the bread is baked by a craft baker, and nearby Henwood Farm delivers fresh organic vegetables and salads every day. The impressive menus show attention to detail - and so must you; check the food service times and book in advance to sample the mouth-watering fare. Starters might include local rabbit and free-range pork terrine with apple chutney and hot toast, followed by main course options such as roast rack of English lamb with fennel gratin and oven-dried tomatoes, or seared Brixham turbot on sautéed marsh samphire. Leave space for dessert; steamed apple and syrup sponge with custard is a typical choice.
