Nancarrow Farm

South Cornwall


This rural farm's bread-and-butter is hosting weddings, but it's also made a name for itself thanks to its lavish monthly feasts. They're usually themed – think Spanish fiesta, or seafood extravaganza – but generally there's a focus on big, bold flavours and cooking over an open fire. Tickets disappear like lightning, so keep your ears to the ground.
