Sustainability
“If you look the right way, you can see that the whole world is a garden”
Sustainability underpins everything we do
Michelin Guide 2022 awarded Moor Hall restaurant with rooms a Green Star accolade, which recognises the practises that we have put in place across the property to ensure the conservation of resources, where possible.
We are immensely passionate about excellent, fresh, well-sourced produce, and as a result as many ingredients as possible are grown within Moor Hall's five-acre landscape, harvested daily for use in the kitchens of our restaurants.
Items we cannot grow ourselves are sourced locally from the West Lancashire region wherever possible, and as a result of these efforts, any food miles travelled are incredibly low.
All of our meat is reared in the North West and we only use sustainable fish from the UK. 100% of our fish are from day boats. All our suppliers have full traceability and so we know exactly where our produce comes from and how it's sourced.
We take great care not to waste any food on-site, and anything we can't repurpose is funnelled back into compost either in the garden or on a national scale (more on our organic farming methods below).
We aim to extend the life of most of our produce, be it drying flowers or fermenting green tomatoes. We also try to maximise anything we buy in, for example we may use lobster tails at Moor Hall and then the claws at The Barn.
Our Initiatives
All exciting journeys begin with a map. And there is plenty to discover within the grounds of Moor Hall – from gardening, gastronomy and history to finding the perfect spot to while away some time, either seated or strolling.
A centrepiece of our dedicated engagement with nature and cultivation.
Field Notes
Lancashire is a land of abundance. Our gardens teem with fruit and vegetables and flowers and herbs. In season here you might eat peas straight out of the pod, so fresh all they need is a touch of salt and nasturtium oil. What we don’t grow we seek out from the amazing produce tended and nurtured by local farmers and artisans.
On site we’re also busy with charcuterie, bread-making and our own micro-dairy. There’s always something interesting to explore or a discovery to be made. And we like to share what we find.
We are delighted to share that Moor Hall has been named the No. 5 restaurant in the UK at the National Restaurant Awards 2026.
