Your Christmas Celebration
Join us this Christmas and enjoy the festive season from your favourite local. From family meals, festive drinks to cosy hotel staycations we’ve got it wrapped! We’ll be rolling out the roasts, stoking the fire and mulling wine and we’ve even brought the inside out! Our covered and heated courtyard garden offers the perfect Tier-2 friendly space to catch up with family and friends from mixed households following the rule of 6. Decorated with festive lights, with cosy blankets and heated hot water bottles, you can even borrow a beanie to keep you toasty while you enjoy your favourite winter tipple!
If you’re looking to relax this Christmas Day, hang up the apron, and let someone else do the hard work, our chefs will be basting, roasting and baking a full traditional. Enjoy crown of English turkey, honey glazed gammon, or one of our vegetarian or vegan roast options, all served with herby roast potatoes, lashings of gravy and a cornucopia of traditional Christmas vegetables. Our traditional cosy pub with 20 boutique bedrooms
