The Orangery

Take a seat in this elegant space, blurring the boundaries between the inside and outside. It takes inspiration from the Mediterranean and the traditional garden room, but with a modern twist.

The menus take their influence from the Nursery, local farms, the Cornish coastline and the turn of each season. Available to book for breakfast and lunch online, by telephone or in person.

Our signature Duchy Afternoon Tea is served every day in The Orangery from 2.30pm and must be booked at least 24 hours in advance. If you are booking a Duchy Afternoon Tea with a Duchy of Cornwall Nursery gift voucher, please call us on: 01208 872668 to make a reservation.
