Our blog about all things peachy
Our food menu changes with the seasons, so it’s only fair our drinks list gets the same attention for the autumn and winter months. Over the last six months the winter drinks list has been our focus – meaning lots of research, planning and of course tasting… After all that hard work, this week it … Continued
Our suppliers make us who we are. You only have to take one look at our values to see we have a very clear ethos, and if our suppliers didn’t believe in the same values – it would just never work! From our award-winning wines, to our sausage o’clock delights after work, each and every … Continued
Christmas is a time to celebrate with family and friends, sharing stories of the months gone by, and looking forward to all the great things planned for the following year. This Christmas might be a little different than any that went before, but that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy good food and decent wine with … Continued

First of all, I should give the inside track on what Summerhouse is. Each year our General Managers and Head Chefs are set a series of targets and if they achieve them, a “little” educational trip is planned. So far Paris, Barcelona, Grenada, Cornwall and the Cotswolds have all had the unfortunate luck of having … Continued
Each season our chefs devise the tastiest of dishes, using only the best ingredients that the current time of year brings. We always serve the good stuff, and in Spring that means the earliest and best English asparagus, Cornish free-range lamb, day-boat Brixham fish, Yorkshire rhubarb and superb farmhouse cheeses. In search of the latest … Continued
The Amalfi Coast, a beautiful place, full of rolling mountain villages and glimmering beaches. Diary entry written by Emily Dolan from The Embankment. It’s 9am on a Monday morning and I’m sitting at the airport four and a half hours before our flight, waiting to be joined by six other unknown faces to this whimsical fairytale … Continued
