In Shottermill, festive gatherings tend to be at home or the hall. We need firm ground and some light. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Prices and what affects them
There’s no fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- Whether you want china
- Menu choices and extras
- How many people are eating
- How easy it is to reach the spot
For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

Planners, venues and businesses
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
How the day works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. In Shottermill, December daylight ends around 4:00pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.
- You tell us your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check the venue and send a price.
- We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- The team serves hot rolls at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we pack up and leave the spot tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Name a contact for the day

Shottermill in December: what to know
Shottermill is about 1 mile west of Haslemere, in Surrey. We take a hog roast for your Christmas party to gardens, car parks, yards and venues around Shottermill and the surrounding area. Shottermill is one of 395 towns and villages in Surrey we cover. Our nearest city page is Guildford, about 13 miles away.
A winter fair at a school like Camelsdale Primary School gets dark early, so hot food is popular. If a church like St. Stephen's Church is running a Christmas fair, hot pork rolls are a welcome sight on a cold evening.
