Which station is closest to Peters Village?
The closest is Snodland station, roughly 1 mile away.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
What if things run late?

Can visitors eat too?
Of course: include them in your numbers.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. We will confirm the menu in the quote.

Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
