Breakfast at Buttermilk Lodge
Breakfast is served from 8 to 10am in our bright and airy breakfast room. Each breakfast is freshly cooked to order using local ingredients, and as you can see from the breakfast menu below, your choices are extensive.
We’re more than happy to serve early breakfasts, if arranged the evening before—and we can also offer a Light Option brought to your room.
Vegetarian, Gluten Free and Dairy Free Diets are all catered for.
Look around the breakfast room and you’ll see the collection of cow gifts from friends and previous guests—at last count there were over 100 cows! Look out the window and you’ll see a host of birds breakfasting at their table while you enjoy yours.
