Organic Orto

Our organic orto – our fantastic organic vegetable and fruit garden – spreads over 2 hectares and just keeps on growing… The annual cycle of bountiful produce provides our restaurant with fresh, sun-drenched veggies, underpinning our seasonally-led menus.

Seasonal produce

Different seasons offer us different things—from peas, asparagus and artichokes in the spring to heirloom tomatoes, juicy strawberries and melons in the summer or figs, kale, cauliflower and squash in the autumn.

Our gardens are completely organic and we use the most sustainable methods available. We do not use pesticides but instead rely on biodynamic farming methods and rain water is irrigated from across the estate.

The fruits of our labour...

OUTDOOR EXPERIENCES

Our organic orto is open to visitors. Connect with nature and its healing properties by taking part in one of our outdoor workshops. You can join everyone’s favourite gardener Donato in the garden for ‘Get Your Hand Dirty’ or take part in a cooking workshop where you forage for your ingredients before cooking it together with one of our chefs in residence.
