Michael Caines wins back a Michelin star

Following Lympstone Manor’s opening in April, Michael Caines MBE is pleased to announce that his country house hotel has been awarded a coveted Michelin Star, published in The Michelin Guide 2018 to Great Britain & Ireland.

The guide is the most revered restaurant guide amongst chefs, restaurant critics and guests alike.

Speaking of the accolade, Michael said: “It’s such an incredible achievement for myself and the team to be awarded the Michelin Star. The hotel and restaurant have been open for only six months, so to have achieved this within such a short time is an amazing testament to the quality that we are creating here on a day-to-day
basis.

As East Devon’s first Michelin-starred restaurant, I want to thank the entire Lympstone Manor team who have worked with me over the past couple of years for their support and dedication: This accolade has made the daily graft worth it. I am looking forward to sharing a glass of Champagne to toast our success with the team –
I’m so proud of them all.”

A new luxury country house hotel for the 21st Century, the Grade-II-listed Georgian mansion in Devon was restored and renovated by Michael Caines, one of Britain’s most celebrated chefs and from Devon himself.

After achieving two Michelin Stars and then holding them for 18 consecutive years at Devon’s Gidleigh Park, Michael has built his reputation on a visionary style of cuisine that celebrates the seasonal bounty of Devon and the South West
