Catering Options

The cottages and main house are set up for self-catering, but we are happy to work with guests to make sure their needs are met:

• Guests are provided with coffee/tea, and cooking utensils. The pool area has a full kitchen.

• For those who prefer to cook, you can bring your own food. If you’d like our staff can arrange for the purchase of fresh fruits and vegetables, and fresh fish.  Charcoal is provided free of charge for the BBQ.

• Our team can also help with food preparation if needed; we will take care of all of the clean-up.

• We can provide a delicious “Saranac breakfast spread” for $10/adult ($7 for kids under 12), including eggs, potatoes, buttermilk pancakes, fresh fruits & avocado, coffee, tea & juice.

• For those interested in full board, we can arrange a chef (at an additional cost) who can work with you to plan a menu, and then provide you with delicious meals throughout your stay. Please let us know if you’d like to explore this option.

• Check out The Deli if you're passing through Jinja town for a selection of fresh, delicious food.
