Pevensey Bay questions
Which station is closest to Pevensey Bay?
Pevensey Bay station, about 0.5 miles north-west of the centre.
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, so you are not left with the mess.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
Do you need much space at base?
Usually, if there’s a level, open spot for the roaster under cover. We’ll agree it with your location manager.
Can you cater our wrap?
Of course. Send us the details.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
