Dining at The Cattle Shed

Enjoy the season’s finest ingredients at our award-winning restaurant


The Cattle Shed in Lyonshall


Our beautiful, award-winning cafe, The Cattle Shed, is situated within a transformed cattle byre across from the manor house. Our dedicated kitchen team led by Head Chef Christopher Dean will serve you the finest locally sourced ingredients. Cafe by day, open seven days a week and restaurant on the evenings of Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. With its beautiful wooden beams, stone walls, huge wooden chandeliers and the odd ‘mouse light’ peeping out here and there, the former cattle byre has a laid back and rustic charm, perfect for relaxed dining.

To book, please call us on 01544 230007.

Our Awards

In days gone by, Penrhos became known as the “Le Manoir au Quat’Saisons” of The Marches because of its pioneering restaurant and cookery school, which gained an international reputation. It was the first restaurant in the UK to qualify for the Soil Association Symbol and, in 2020, The Cattle Shed was awarded the prestigious Traveller’s Choice Award, placing it in the top 10% of restaurants worldwide.
