At this stage, we actually are not sure! This is due to the Earnslaw boat being out of the water for service. They may put on an alternative boat for transport to and from the farm station but we do not know yet.

Hiya, thanks so much for your enquirey into the Walter Peak BBQ Lunch and Dinner. The dinner option is more expensive as they have the seafood buffet available on the dinner menu, this is not available on the lunch menu.

The TSS Earnslaw will be back in operation from the 4th of July for cruise only bookings. At this stage, it is still unconfirmed when the evening dining will be available again.

Heya, The Earnslaw goes back on the water after maintenance on the 9th of July. So yes the 9th July will be the Earnslaw.

Hi Phillipa. Vegetarians are well catered for at Walter Peak. There is a large selection of salads, antipasto and cooked vegetables, as well as breads, cheeses, fruits and desserts.

Hi. Are Halal meal provided for Muslims? If not, do you serve seafood and diary products?

Comment by: Eve on 29th Nov 15 at 21:43

Hi Eve, yes halal diets are catered for. There are a couple of different halal meats that are prepared for the Walter Peak BBQ dinner so you will need to just ask the chef on the day which ones they are. Yes, some seafood is also served, often fish and prawns.
