Guests can book afternoon tea or Sunday lunch, both prepared with the same attention to quality. The restaurant offers a daily changing menu that reflects the seasonal availability of ingredients.

Location
Orestone Manor sits on the coast overlooking Lyme Bay, with Maidencombe Beach a short walk down the cliff path. The coastal footpath connects to Torquay and Teignmouth, offering strenuous but rewarding walks with sea views. Nearby attractions include Paignton Zoo with over two thousand animals and Torre Abbey's historic gardens.
Gardens & Outdoor
The hotel's award-winning gardens include a terrace with sea views, a sun terrace, and an outdoor hot tub available for guests. The gardens are steep but well-kept, with mature trees and shrubbery framing the coastal panorama. Outdoor furniture is placed on the terrace for pre-dinner drinks or afternoon relaxation.
