Seasons Focus
From brisk winter mornings to the warm summer sun, our experiences in life are dictated by the seasons, so why should the food we eat be any different? Traditionally, we wouldn’t have had the choice to enjoy foods provided to us by nature in a different season than the one we’re in, so we’ve pair it back and we aim to enjoy ingredients as they arrive.

Food & Wine
Our menu’s change with the seasons, We’re not hugely prescriptive with our menu changes. We work with seasonal produce, and this may mean ingredients and dishes evolve and change as rapidly as the weather.

Wine List
"It may not be near the coast, but the Lighthouse does attract your attention. The self-taught chef prepares ambitious, complex dishes with good combinations of flavours and textures; the tasting menu, in particular, is a hit."
Michelin Guide
"'A lovely dining experience and the food is sublime' was the verdict of one visitor to this 'remote rural location'. Barn like with is exposed brick and high rafters, the dining room is spacious and airy with most tables facing the open kitchen where Jon Hardy and his team produce some assured and innovative cooking. A summer tasing experience menu skips around the globe"
