As ever, dinner will be prepared by the hosts and last year’s award winners.

Cooking this year is Mark Dodson of The Masons Arms (starter), Michael Smith of Porthminster Beach Café (fish course), Jamie Gulliford of Salcombe Harbour Hotel (main) and Dorian Janmaat of The Idle Rocks (dessert). Each course will be paired with the finest wines from Hallgarten and Novum and beer from Sharp’s Brewery.

The evening will start with a Champagne reception featuring exquisite canapés, and will finish with petits fours and coffee.

As the hotel has lots of rooms, it’s an opportunity to stay the night in this beautiful location with its spa and nearby beaches.

A discounted room rate is available for Trencherman’s Guide members.

Please call 01548 844444 (option 1) and quote either Trencherman’s Guide or TREN060323 to book your room.

We’re expecting these to go very quickly, so please don’t delay to avoid disappointment.
