Your questions about a hog roast for your team in Stowting Common
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Kent Downs National Landscape?

Can you do a hog roast in Spong Wood?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first.

How much does a hog roast cost?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
What happens in bad weather?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Can you work to our lunch time?
We plan the roast around your break. Rolls keep service quick.
Do you provide china?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
Can you set up in our car park?
A car park, yard or grounds typically works, given level ground and clearance.
For planners, venues and organisers
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we will tell you what we can send.

Compared with sandwich platters, a hog roast is hot, fresh and feels like an event. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Planning a team lunch in Stowting Common
Stowting Common is about 6 miles north of Hythe, in Kent. A hog roast suits staff events around Stowting Common, whatever the venue. Stowting Common is one of 922 places in Kent where we cater. Our nearest city page is Canterbury, about 9 miles away.
Stowting Common sits roughly 54 miles from central London, well within our area. Historic houses near Stowting Common include Westenhanger Castle (3.7 miles south) and Acrise Place (4.5 miles east). For a client event at a historic house, ask early about rules for outside caterers. The Kent Downs National Landscape is within about 4 miles, which suits team days in the countryside. Within about 6 miles of the sea, sites can be windy, so we choose a sheltered spot for the roaster.

We also bring hog roasts to staff events in Stowting (1 mile south), Hemsted (1 mile south-east), Skeete (2 miles south-east), Woodland (2 miles south-east) and Rhodes Minnis (2 miles east).

Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- Time on site
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The journey to the venue
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups normally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
