The Cook House

where writers head when the dinner bell rings

​The Cook House is culinary central. Three meals a day are served as part of the cost of the retreat (see Rooms and Rates).  The focus will be on healthful food, with local and organic ingredients as much as is possible. Breakfast will be served in the morning hours between 8-9, with continental offerings until 10am. Ploughman's style lunches featuring soups and salads, breads, meats and cheeses, will be set out for 90 minutes mid-day, so writers can come and enjoy as they wish. And, each night, the dinner bell will ring in the dinner hour.
