A Unique and Memorable Dinner Party or Event at Lewtrenchard Manor Posted on 24/12/2008
Lewtrenchard Manor in Devon offers a true escape to anyone seeking some ‘Me Time’ away from the day-to-day city stresses. Hidden away in a wooded hollow just beneath the wild tors of Dartmoor, Lewtrenchard is a house virtually untouched by time. The original manor was mentioned in the Domesday Book, and today it is an impressive Jacobean dwelling, set in its own shrub filled gardens and surrounded by peaceful parkland, dating back to the early 1600’s.
Lewtrenchard Manor’s Chef Patron Jason Hornbuckle has just launched Purple Carrot- a unique dining concept that will impress all. Put simply, you are invited to experience an 8 course personalised menu in a unique private dining room with birds eye views on screens into a working kitchen with the chef telling you as much or as little about what he and his team are up to. Purple Carrot includes:
- Private dining room providing a birds eye view of a three rosette, state-of-the-art kitchen in action - Eight Course Personalised Menus (pre-arranged with Chef Patron) - Laurent Perrier Champagne at the Chef’s Kitchen Bar - Exclusive Bibendum Wine Cellar- wine matched to compliment each course - Activity from kitchen captured on cameras and viewed on large flat screen - Special viewing areas within the room to watch the chefs in action - One course cooked in front of guests in the room
