The West Country is on a mouthwatering fine dining trajectory, making its mark on the world restaurant scene and attracting top chefs and a sparkle of Michelin stars. That's no surprise. Freshest seafood straight from the boats, tender meat raised slowly and gently on moorland and hillsides, fruit and vegetables plumped by the sunshine and mellow climate, cheese and golden clotted cream from rich milk, and ciders, wine and real ale traditionally brewed - what's not to love? Whether you eat in on a fireside feast of local produce, enjoy honest hearty pub fare or treat yourselves to somewhere a little special, you won't go hungry. Here's our selection of tasty cottages with delicious dining nearby.
