Keep the Great Outdoors Great

Let us share with you the ingredients for the secret art of picnicking - idyllic setting, delicious seasonal food, summer wine, homemade cordials, good company, fresh air and sunshine.

This summer Brown’s Hotel is offering guests the opportunity to enjoy the sunshine and relax within the glorious rolling landscape of Dartmoor with a luxurious Brown’s picnic. Browns Hotel is located in central Tavistock, five minutes walk from the famous Moors that Steven Spielberg choose as the backdrop for the ground breaking, multi award wining movie “Warhorse”

The Brown’s team will help carry the picnic to your vehicle and provide a map that allows you to reach a secluded spot were you will be able to relax and enjoy, there is a pre packed Roberts radio for you to listen to, sunscreen just in case the English weather surprises us and a selection of summer games to play.

Stroll along the banks of the meandering River Tamar, where 365 acres of luscious rolling moorland lies, Browns Hotel can supply a gourmet treat picnic, whilst Devon provides an exceptional setting to while away the hours with family and loved ones.  Make the most of the wonderful moorland which is located on your doorstep for a romantic escape or family day out to indulge in a traditional fully catered picnic with delicious food and drinks complete with hamper and luxury rug. You could even take the dog too!

The decadent picnic includes delicious treats from our South West larder including a West Country farmhouse cheese board, Devonshire strawberries and cream, a selection of finger sandwiches and Pimm’s jellies with cucumber cream, all presented in a beautiful wicker basket and laid out on a picnic rug. The Brown’s picnic costs from £32.50 per person and a variety of different menus are available. Children's picnics are also available at £9.50 per child.

Like everything else at Browns - the attention to detail and quirky enthusiasm for the good things in life, shines through. Your picnic will be like no other.
