What happens on the day

Late September evenings in Pyrford Village lose the light at about 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.

Your questions about a hog roast in Pyrford Village
Could you cook in White Rose Lane?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first.

Do you travel across Surrey?

What if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
How soon do you get booked up?

Is our garden big enough?
Frequently, yes, if there is a level, open spot away from the house and trees, as long as we can get the equipment in. A picture helps us check.
