FAQs for Westcot
Do you cater at venues in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Is Westcot too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat is not something we offer.
When should we book our Christmas party?
Very quickly, so ask early. Weekdays often have more availability.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
DIY machine hire is available. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Can you cater outdoors in December?
Yes, the roast always cooks outdoors under cover. Plan a warm place for guests.
Christmas hog roast in Westcot, carved to order
We plan for winter weather: we cook under cover, and guests eat somewhere warm. Indoors or a heated marquee is ideal. Typical bookings include winter fairs and markets and lights switch-on evenings, with halloumi skewers, hog roast rolls and crackling.
Near Westcot, country lanes are dark in winter, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Our staff serve and clear, so you are not left handing out rolls.

How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party
There is no fixed price list, because every Christmas party is different. What matters most:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Plates or china
- Travel to Westcot
- Site access
For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Getting an accurate quote
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- An estimate of numbers
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Any dietary needs or allergies
The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of the cooking area helps. Fill in our quote form.

Crackling

Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.

If a church like Church of the Holy Rood is running a Christmas fair, hot pork rolls are a welcome sight on a cold evening. The North Wessex Downs National Landscape is within about 6 miles of Westcot, where winter lanes can be dark and narrow, so tell us about the route.
