Newlands Holidays – Great Place, Great Taste...

For the ultimate Newlands Holidays experience, you simply can’t leave without stopping by to sample the culinary delights at our restaurant. Our chef, Alan Bird, is a dab hand at cooking a whole variety of fantastic dishes that are sure to satisfy any appetite.

On our evening menu, we’re serving up everything from classic British favourites like steaks and gourmet pies to more exotic fare like curries and pasta dishes, as well as Alan’s unique chef’s specials menu.

Taste of the West


Taste of the West was established in 1991 as the regional food and drink trade organisation for the South West of England. As a membership organisation, Taste of the West works to develop the region’s exceptional regional food and drink industry.

We’re part of the Taste of the West programme, which means we’re committed to using locally produced ingredients whenever we possibly can in our restaurant. It helps local farmers and suppliers, and also makes our food that extra bit special – we believe Westcountry farm produce is as good as you’ll find anywhere in the UK, and it comes to us fresh from source.

Lunch and light bites are served daily 12pm - 2pm

Evening dinner menu is served daily 5.30pm - 9pm.
