1 Welcome to Orestone Manor The varied landscape of Devon produces some of the finest and freshest produce available in the country such as South Devon Beef, Exmoor Lamb, local estate wild game, Dayboat fish from Brixham, and Teign River Mussels to name but a few. We also grow our own in season fruit and vegetables in our own kitchen gardens here on site. At the heart of our cuisine is the ethos to source where possible the finest seasonal ingredients locally, with confidence in their provenance and integrity. We have developed over the years a number of partnerships with our suppliers, who we thank immensely for consistently delivering the best of what our region has to offer. We are lucky enough to be exclusively supplied by Fluder Farm s Dexter cattle - a hardy, miniature native breed that travels just 3 miles from the Stef s smallholding to your plate. Our food, although simple, balances wonderful ingredients, perfectly cooked allowing them to speak for themselves. We also source local ales, ciders, wines and soft drinks to complement our dishes, such as Sharpham Estate wine from Totnes, Bays Brewery Ales from Torbay and Luscombe s soft drinks. We also offer a Gold Card scheme which gives you 10% off food and drink (excluding events nights) and a complimentary bottle of champage on your birthday as well as priority booking just ask your server for more details. Gratuity policy: Tables less than 8 service charge not included, if you wish to reward good service, gratuities are shared amongst all of our staff unless otherwise requested.

6 Cheese Notes Godminster Vintage Organic Cheddar A firm pressed medium to strong cheese. Most noticeable is the cheese's exceptionally creamy, rich, full flavour. Initially mellow with a creamy consistency, Godminster then progresses to a tasty, lingering after bite. Capricorn Goats Cheese A lovely mild, young and nutty goats cheese from Somerset with a soft creamy white curd. Cornish Yarg This nettle wrapped Cornish Yarg is young, fresh and creamy under its natural rind and slightly crumbly in the core. Hand made in round open vats, the curd is pressed and brined before being wrapped in wild nettle leaves foraged from the Cornish countryside. As the cheese matures the edible nettle rind imparts a delicate, slight mushroom taste. Sharpham Brie The Sharpham dairy is based on the Sharpham estate on the banks of the River Dart just south of Totnes in Devon. This is one of the cheese family known as 'mould-ripened', and it's best thought of as Sharpham's take on brie: they were one of the first UK makers to make this style of cheese, and this creamy marvel must still rank as one of the best. Dorset Blue Vinney Made by the Davis family at Bishops Caundle near Sturminster Newton, this traditional Dorset Blue is made with unpasteurised milk from their own herd of cows. It has a drier texture than Stilton but a full flavour and good blue veining. This was reputedly Thomas Hardy s favourite cheese! Why not pair with a port? Niepoort s Tawny Dee, Ruby Dum or their 2009 LBV, Warre s Otima 10yr Tawny. Or for something different why not pair with one of our Cider Brandies? The Somerset Pomona, a secret blend of juice and Cider Brandy from the vintage apple orchards of Kingsbury Episcopi by the Somerset Distillery. After two years aging in oak barrels the flavours have softened and become richer and the apple flavours beautifully complement our westcountry cheeses. Or Somerset Cider Brandy, matured in oak barrels to give a smooth, complex brandy full of subtle aromas. Savour and appreciate the harmony of flavours.
