Tesco Direct can deliver groceries, and if let us know in time we can unpack and store any food ready for your arrival.

If you are planning some cooking and healthy eating you could arrange for an organic 'veg box' from Riverford Farm which is delivered on a Friday, (even though on their website it states that they deliver on a Wednesday!) We use them and can recommend the quality of their fruit and veg.

This site detailing all food from Cornwall is well worth a look www.foodfromcornwall.co.uk

You could also try some excellent organic meat from the Russell family at Churchtown Farm nearby, telephone 01726 870375, ideal for barbecues.
