Common questions in Sepham Heath
Could you cook in Polhill Bank?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
Which station is closest to Sepham Heath?
The closest is Knockholt station, roughly 1.7 miles away.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, for confident cooks. We will explain the details with your quote.
Is crockery included?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Where does the hog roast go?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. A picture helps.
What happens in bad weather?
Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We don’t provide halal meat.
