FAQs for Elvetham Heath
Is Elvetham Heath close to London?
Roughly 36 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
What’s the nearest station to Elvetham Heath?
The closest is Fleet station, roughly 0.9 miles away.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. A photo helps.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Can you do a hog roast for a client event?
With china and sides, it works well for clients.
What happens in bad weather?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
A hog roast or other catering?
Next to a staff barbecue, nobody from the team is stuck cooking. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

Before you choose a spot

- Approval from facilities for gas equipment
- A covered area or canteen for wet weather
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
