A wide variety of culinary experiences
From the grandeur and opulence of dinner in Samuel’s Restaurant, a relaxed lunch or supper in the contemporary Terrace Restaurant and Bar, a quintessential Afternoon Tea in the Drawing Room, intimate fine dining at Chef’s Table by Josh Barnes, private dining, through to a hearty lunch or piece of cake at Swinton Bivouac Café, there is a dining experience for everyone.
All dining experiences on the Swinton Estate embrace the very best seasonal produce from across the Estate, from our four-acre Walled Garden, regionally, and locally. The Estate deer herd in the Parkland provides our venison, our farm tenants provide us with beef and pork products, while our chefs forage for seasonal, wild, edible ingredients from across the Estate.
