Delicious Devon cream teas and other local food and drink treats
With such an amazing variety of local produce, Devon is a truly tasty destination for foodies of all persuasions. Here at South View, a delicious homemade cream tea made by Jill is a must, enjoyed in the comfort of your very own lodge. Enjoy quality tea and with beautifully fresh treats, or make it a high tea with a cheeky glass of prosecco on request. All you need to do is contact us in advance to book (minimum two people).
For those who love cake (and who doesn’t?) we also make a large selection of tasty cupcakes to order; you choose the flavour and leave the rest to us. These are perfect for birthdays, anniversaries or simply as a special holiday treat. We can always add balloons and decorations for that special occasion too; just let us know in advance.
