Bed and Veggie Breakfast at Settle
in Yorkshire Dales Limestone Country
Set in an area of
dramatic peaks, limestone scars, waterfalls and caves, the Oast Guest
House offers a warm Yorkshire welcome and fantastic food. Vegetarian
and
vegan breakfasts and optional 2-3 course dinners are prepared using fresh,
local produce to the high standards of the Vegetarian Society Food and
Drink Guild. The Oast House also understands that guests may have special
dietary requirements and will happily cater for individual needs.
The Oast Guest House
is situated close to the centre of Settle, an unspoilt old market town
(its charter dates back to 1249) at the southern edge of the Yorkshire
Dales National Park and in the Ribble Valley. It is a natural and ideal
base for exploring this beautiful area of Yorkshire.
Proprietors, Margaret
and Tony King, offer a wealth of local knowledge and with their extensive
walking experience, will help you make the most of your stay. Relax in
the guest lounge and take advantage of the tourist information literature,
including guides and local history. Maps of the area are also provided
for your use and packed lunches are available for those who want to walk
all day!
For more information
or to book a room in this fine Victorian establishment please contact
Margaret King on 01729 822 989.
Membership of The Food & Drink
Guild is only available to caterers that demonstrate a
clear understanding of the requirements of a vegetarian lifestyle and
have had their menus, recipes, ingredients and procedures approved by
The Society.
Members of the Food and Drink Guild Scheme are able to use the Societys
approved logo (the seedling symbol).
The Vegetarian Society's
trademark seedling symbol
was established in 1969. Since then it has become the most widely recognised
and trusted stamp of vegetarian approval anywhere in the world. The strength
of the symbol is based on products meeting firm criteria. No other symbol
gives consumers such reassurance and inspires the trust that comes from
The Vegetarian Society seedling approved symbol.
The Vegetarian Society, a registered educational charity, is the oldest
vegetarian organisation in the world. It offers an independent voice to
promote and provide information on vegetarianism.
The Vegetarian Society
Awards 2002, which promote
good practice in the vegetarian food and catering industries will be held
on 7 November 2002 at The Waldorf Hotel, The Strand, London.
