🍂 A taste of the season, one delicious forkful at a time…

Our Wild Boar Ragù Pappardelle is everything we love about autumn dining. Rich, slow-cooked wild boar, full of deep, hearty flavours, tossed through ribbons of pappardelle pasta for the ultimate seasonal comfort food. 🍝

With game season well underway, we're celebrating the bold, comforting flavours that make this time of year so special.

Rustic, indulgent and utterly delicious – this is autumn on a plate. 🍁

🥂 A little taste of Italy, one glass at a time…

This week's w**e spotlight takes us to the rolling hills of Piedmont in northern Italy, home to our beautifully refreshing Ca' di Mezzo Gavi. 🇮🇹

Crisp, elegant and wonderfully fresh, with delicate notes of green apple, citrus, ripe pear and subtle floral aromas. 🍏🍋

Made from the Cortese grape, this classic Italian white is all about balance – bright acidity, delicate fruit and a beautifully clean finish.

And with our autumn menu in full swing, there's plenty to pair it with! From our delicate sea bream, cyder battered haddock sandwich or our beautifully fresh beetroot-cured trout, this is a w**e that complements some of our favourite seasonal dishes.

Proof that autumn dining doesn't always have to be rich and heavy. Sometimes, something crisp and refreshing is exactly what you need. 🍂

🍂 A little twist on a timeless classic…

Our autumn/winter cocktail menu is now in full swing, and this one is quickly becoming a favourite.

Meet the Fig Negroni. 🍸

Rich, bittersweet and beautifully warming, with a subtle sweetness from fig that brings a seasonal twist to the iconic Italian classic.

The perfect way to settle in, escape the autumn chill and enjoy something a little different.

Join us at the bar and discover your new seasonal favourite. 🍁

🛏️✨ Sometimes, doing absolutely nothing is exactly what you need.

No alarms. No endless to-do lists. No rushing from one place to the next.

Just a beautifully comfortable bedroom, countryside views from your window and the freedom to take the day entirely at your own pace.

Our 15 boutique bedrooms offer the perfect little retreat from the hustle and bustle, with all the warmth and character of a traditional country pub just a few steps away. 🍁

Spend the afternoon exploring, settle in for something delicious from our seasonal menu, or simply enjoy the luxury of having nowhere else to be.

Because the best kind of getaway isn't always about going far. Sometimes, it's just about slowing down. 🤎

🍂 Rich, hearty and made for autumn…

As the days grow shorter and the temperatures begin to drop, there's nothing quite like the comfort of proper, traditional pub food.

Our venison and pheasant faggots are rich, indulgent and packed with deep, seasonal flavours – exactly the sort of dish we crave at this time of year. 🍁

Best enjoyed with a glass of red, a roaring fire and nowhere else you need to be. 🍷🔥

A little taste of autumn, served just the way it should be.

!15,000 raised. And we're not calling last orders just yet 🍺

🌸 Who says rosé is just for summer?

This week's w**e spotlight takes us to the sun-soaked vineyards of Provence, home to the beautifully elegant Minuty Rosé. 🇫🇷🍷

Delicate, crisp and wonderfully refreshing, with notes of red berries, soft orchard fruits and a beautifully clean, lingering finish.

Its pale pink colour might remind you of summer afternoons, but this is a w**e worth enjoying all year round.

Perfect alongside fresh seafood, Mediterranean-inspired dishes, light lunches or simply a few delicious nibbles shared around the table. 🫒

Because great rosé doesn't need a season, just good company.

🐟 A pub classic, with a little twist…

Golden, crispy battered haddock tucked into a soft, buttery brioche bun, layered with tangy pickled cucumber, creamy tartare sauce and finished with a generous shaving of Parmesan. 🤤

All the flavours of your favourite fish and chips, served up a little differently.

Perfect for a leisurely lunch, a bite with friends or simply because you fancy something delicious.

Who’s giving this one a try? 🍋

☕🍸 Some classics never go out of season…

Rich, velvety and effortlessly indulgent, there's something about an Espresso Martini that feels particularly special as the colder months roll in. 🍂

Crafted using freshly ground John Street espresso, every cocktail starts with beautifully aromatic coffee, bringing deep, roasted flavours and a wonderfully smooth richness to this much-loved classic.

Shaken to perfection, finished with that signature silky crema and delivering just the right balance of bold coffee and subtle sweetness.

The perfect pick-me-up, an after-dinner indulgence or simply an excuse to make an evening last a little longer.

Because great coffee deserves to be enjoyed in more ways than one. 🤎

🍂 Cosy days, roaring fires and something delicious to share…

As the colder weather rolls in, there’s nothing quite like tucking into a rich, gooey baked Camembert by the fire. 🧀🔥

Make it even more indulgent with the addition of fennel salami and cornichons, the perfect combination of creamy cheese, cured meats and a little tangy crunch.

Grab a glass of red, find a cosy corner and settle in. Autumn never tasted so good. 🍷
