A STORY
Mrs P’s Jam…
A Taste of Tradition

Paola Pascoe – more lovingly known as ‘Mrs P’ – is one of the original owners of the Penventon Park Hotel and the sole producer of our jam.
After over 50 years of making jam for us, she’s perfected the recipe. And still to this day, just like always, she continues to make all of the jam we serve.

Using Cornish fruit, some even coming from her own garden, it’s truly a taste of Cornwall. Though Mrs P’s classic strawberry jam, raspberry jam and marmalade is iconic and a favourite amongst our locals and residents alike, it’s her more unique flavours that captures people attention. Kiwi, blueberry, mixed berry and gin, raspberry and Prosecco, peach to name a few… you think of a fruit and she can turn it into the most delectable and moreish jam you’ve ever tried.
