Dining Experiences at Roobies Farm
While exploring Somerset’s culinary delights is an absolute treat, we also understand that sometimes the best dining experience is one where you don’t have to leave your cottage. To make your stay even more special, we offer guests the option to have a private chef cook for you in the comfort of your holiday home. Not only will they prepare a delectable meal, but they’ll also take care of the clean-up, so you can relax and enjoy your evening stress-free.
If a private chef is a bit too much for you, why not enjoy the convenience of having delicious home-cooked meals delivered straight to your door? Our contract caterer will prepare your meals, and all you need to do is pop them in the oven to heat through.
Whether you decide to venture out and explore the culinary scene or prefer to stay in and enjoy a more private experience, Roobies Farm offers a range of options that ensure your dining experience is as memorable as your stay.
At Roobies Farm, we pride ourselves on offering the ultimate in comfort, luxury, and hospitality—where not only you but also your dogs are treated as part of the family. So come, relax, and indulge in the best that Somerset has to offer, from the finest restaurants to the comfort of dining at home with your loved ones, furry friends included!
