Woodfire Dining

Located at Westerlands, Woodfire Camping serve the most delicious meals made with locally sourced ingredients and cooked on an open woodfire grill.

Think less a restaurant, more like going to theirs for breakfast or supper. Dinner itself is like a big, relaxed family meal. Tables are moved around, kids come and go or play nearby while adults can chat and linger to watch the sun set.

Stella & Griff

Stella & Griff set up Woodfire Camping at Westerlands in 2018. They began cooking for campers on Friday nights, knowing from experience that travelling from work, putting up a tent and then having to produce a meal can test the most patient of souls.

They now cook breakfast and supper when they are open and their food is so good they have built a reputation for it (BBC GoodFood Magazine, The Guardian, The Telegraph Food & Drink etc).

Visit their Instagram page to find out more about them and what to expect when you visit Woodfire.

How it works

Pre-order your food a few days before you want to eat. Then Stella and Griff can order only what they need from their suppliers so there's very little waste. Don’t forget to let them know if you have any allergies or if they need any extra information regarding your order.

They always cook a bit more in case the delicious smells lure latecomers so it's worth ordering even after the deadline in case they can accommodate, but once it's gone, it's gone!

Bring your own plates, glasses and cutlery and soft drinks only. It's not BYOB as they sell delicious chilled local beers, cocktails and wines at the Kitchen, though of course you're welcome to have your own alcohol in your accommodation.

Timing

We have two or three sittings, between 6.30pm and 8.30pm depending on how many are dining.

The times for these may vary so please pop round to see us between 8-10am on the day of your booking (or when you arrive at Westerlands) and reserve a time slot. You can’t do this in advance.

Prices

Woodfire cook one meal each evening, just like at home but with a meat and vegetarian/vegan option. There are two portion sizes: standard or half (kids over 8 with a healthy appetite probably need a standard).

£20 for meat/fish dishes (£2 supplement for steak)
£17 for plant-based dishes
£10 for kids’ dishes (£2 supplement for steak)
£7 for desserts

You don't pre-pay for your order (sometimes people are ill or kids aren't hungry etc). You can pay as you go or keep a tab and settle up with a card payment when you leave.
