The relaxed atmosphere extends to a Kitchen Table dining experience as well as afternoon teas and even a cookery school.

Raw & Cured, the food bar in Herb House Spa, offers delicious, natural and healthy food, including freshly made salads, cured fish and meat from Lime Wood’s own Smoke House, as well as fresh juices and smoothies.
