We source much of our food from the estate. Fresh fish, crabs and lobster are all landed on the quay at Clovelly daily, in season. We’re also part of the sustainable fishing partnership, to ensure our waters have lobster for generations to come. The Red Lion also has a number of vegetarian and vegan options to choose from.
Clovelly is a beautiful, picturesque fishing village, steeped in maritime atmosphere and history. It was once owned by the Queen of England!
Originally the estate was owned by William the Conqueror, King of England, gifted to his wife and then had many royal associations until 1242 when first acquired by the Giffard family. Until the middle of the 19th century Clovelly was unknown to the outside world.
Check out our shops, galleries and museums. Try your hand at our arts & crafts workshops, charter a boat for a fishing trip or take a stroll along the beautiful cliffs, beaches and through the village. The choice is yours in Clovelly!
