Rosewarne Manor - Seasonal Menu

Buying Policy

We are passionate about using local fresh produce. Our menus reflect seasonal availability and do, therefore, change with the seasons. We source Cornish produce where-ever possible, buying direct from local farmers and butchers. Where wholesalers are used they have been selected because of their ability to assist us in our Cornish sourcing policy. We do not claim to use 100% Cornish produce as this would, with seasonal changes, limit the opportunities for our chefs to create interesting dishes. Details of our local produce suppliers are provided on the “suppliers” page of this website.
