Weekend packages for exclusive use of the Hotel and cottages are available. We also offer special offers for Shooters and Golfers.

DINING EXPERIENCE:
In January 2009 the team was strengthened by the addition of Head Chef, Jon Hughes. He started his career after completing an Honors Degree in English and Creative studies, using his lifelong interest and enthusiasm in food to establish a popular “gastro pub” in the centre of Taunton.

From there, Jon, enjoyed a busy summer season on Bryher at the rosette-wining Hell Bay Hotel. He then wanted to expand his experience and has worked in Australia, Bristol and lastly as the Head Chef in the Hampshire Hotel, St Helier, which was awarded three stars!

Jon’s passion for food covers a very wide range of styles and skills. His enthusiasm for every aspect of cooking creates innovative and exciting menus and he is keen to explore opportunities for home-grown vegetables to complement the present herb garden, curing and smoking meats and perhaps experimenting with home-made sausages.

Jon recognised the fantastic opportunity of establishing a restaurant of repute at Trimstone. He saw the potential and the opportunity to add quality dining with wonderful surroundings, service and style, where he will be able to make his mark here in North Devon which in turn will hopefully make North Devon an even more attractive destination for visitors.
