The perfect dish for an autumnal day. 🍁🦆
On the menu today, we are featuring Hedley wild mallard duck served two ways: a perfectly roasted BBQ breast and a rich, slow-cooked confit leg poached in duck fat.
We pair this seasonal wild game with a vibrant pink puree made from apples grown right here in our village, along with sauté shredded potatoes, celeriac, and fresh greens tossed with garlic and parsley. It truly is autumn on a plate.

A true Feathers Inn classic is on the menu today! ⭐️
Our black pudding, poached local duck egg, and devilled gravy has been a favorite since the very day we opened our doors. Based on a classic recipe by the legendary chef Paul Heathcote, we’ve subtly adapted it over the years into one of our absolute signature, standout dishes. Rich, comforting, and always a crowd-pleaser—it’s a must-try if you’re visiting us today.

Cozy up, your autumn table is waiting. 🍂✨
The fires are lit, the candles are glowing, and the ultimate autumn vibe is ready and waiting for you at The Feathers Inn. If you’ve been looking for an excuse to escape the chill and settle into a proper country pub, this is it.
On the table today, we are serving up a beautiful balance of seasonal flavours: Yeasted cauliflower, home-dried raisins, mint, and capers. It’s earthy, sweet, beautifully tangy, and the ultimate comfort food for a crisp autumn afternoon.
To match, our bartender is shaking The Fallen Angel cocktail. It’s crisp, perfectly balanced, and best enjoyed right next to the crackling log fire. 🔥
Whether you’re wrapping up a brisk countryside walk or just looking for a warm, welcoming corner to spend your weekend, we’d love to have you join us at Hedley on the Hill.
Tables fill up quickly. We have a log burning stove in all our rooms so everyone has a cozy seat.
