Our friends at The Earlsdale Bed & Breakfast, Ilfracombe, Devon are opening for dinner on Monday nights in November. See the post below for more details…

So many people, locals and guests alike, have asked us about doing full-on evening dining at The Earlsdale.

In the high season it's impossible for us, and usually in the winter we are busy improving and working on the building.... BUT, this year is different.

Come November - every Monday night will see us transform into Earl's Diner ... proper feel good casual comfort eatin', all plant-based, designed for everyone to enjoy.

More info to follow, limited to 14 covers per night. Reservation advised.

If you would like to be added to a mailing list to find out more info FIRST, or would like to book a table please email at [email protected]

Dates in November available are:
2nd
9th (FULLY BOOKED)

30th

Accommodation will also be available by request.

We very much look forward to seeing you and creating some joy as the nights draw in...!
