THE SEAHORSE

The Seahorse Restaurant specializes in seafood and is situated on the banks of the River Dart in Dartmouth. Lucky to have some of the best fish and shellfish in the world landed here much of which is cooked over an open charcoal fire.

In addition to the full menu they offer a 2 course menu for £20 which is served at lunchtimes and until 7pm excluding Saturday night. There is also an extensive wine list of over 180 bins, all carefully chosen for seafood and we open a selection each day to serve by the glass so there is always something different to try.   

With a warm atmoshpere and friendly service, families are most welcome to dine with here, and if there is any other attention you may require whilst eating here please just let them know, they can even organise a comfortable boat across the river if you miss the last ferry.

SALCOMBE GIN

With an uncompromising approach to quality, co-founders Angus and Howard created Salcombe Gin ‘Start Point’, a multi-award winning ‘London Dry Gin’ handcrafted on ‘Provident’, a beautiful 450l copper pot still overlooking the estuary, in the stunning coastal town of Salcombe.

Exceptionally smooth, distinct and complex, Salcombe Gin ‘Start Point’ is distilled with 13 fine botanicals hand sourced from around the world, including Macedonian juniper, English coriander seed and fresh citrus from historical trading routes once served by the famous Salcombe fruit schooners. It is citrus led with classic juniper notes and is balanced with warming spice and a lengthy finish.

Located just 20 miles from Dartmouth, the Distillery, Tasting Bar and Gin School is open 7 days a week and can be found on Island Street, Salcombe.

This year, Salcombe Gin will be sponsoring the Dartmouth Food Festival Bar on the South Embankment so be sure to pop in for a signature ‘Salcombe & Tonic’ or a tantalising cocktail.

GREENERGY

Headline Sponsor. 

Greenergy are the largest supplier of petrol and diesel in the country, supplying fuel to every one in three cars in Britain.

They don’t own any oil refineries, but do import fuel products on ships into terminals around the country – the closest being at Plymouth.  They also blend their own petrol, manufacture high-quality biodiesel from waste cooking oils and have an in-house haulage operation to deliver fuel to petrol stations and other customer sites.    

Although Greenergy are a big business, you probably haven’t heard of them.  We operate behind the scenes as a wholesaler supplier delivering fuel to supermarkets, oil companies and independently owned petrol stations.  They don’t own any petrol stations and you won’t see their brand on any forecourts, but if you are filling up your car anywhere in the South of England, there is a strong chance the fuel has come from them.

 “We are a big company with an entrepreneurial spirit, so are delighted to support this exciting event that promotes local talent and engages the community in a unique way.”
