Party hog roast for Hunny Hill
Party hog roast near Hunny Hill
A hog roast makes a party at home feel special. We set up in your garden or on the drive, roast slowly for hours and carve when you are ready, so you can enjoy your own party. We’re often asked to cater ruby, golden and diamond anniversaries and back-garden get-togethers, with hog roast rolls, coleslaw and crackling.
In a place like Hunny Hill, a party at home is typically the easiest option. Tell us about the drive and the garden, and we’ll bring everything else. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Catered or do it yourself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
What we serve, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who don’t eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and it suits fussy eaters.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, depending on the season and the occasion.
Events we cater in Hunny Hill

- Close and cul-de-sac parties
- Anniversary parties

If you had Seaclose Park in mind, ask the council or landowner first: we can’t simply set up a roaster in a public park.
Before booking anyone
- Where the roaster goes and what it needs
- Whether plates or china are included
- The deposit, balance and cancellation terms
- How they handle allergens and dietary needs
The process
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. By late September, sunset in Hunny Hill is about 7:10pm; by December it’s about 4:00pm. Light the garden path and the serving area.
- Show us the garden or drive.
- We confirm it works and send a quote.
- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- Our staff serve rolls and sides.
- We clear up so you do not have to.
Before we arrive
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Name a contact for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before

Common questions in Hunny Hill
Can you do a hog roast in Seaclose Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you roast near the sea around Hunny Hill?
Yes, of course. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Do you serve the food?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
How far ahead should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it is always worth asking: fill in our quote form.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
What do you need from us on the day?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
How big a hog will we need?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so tell us your best estimate. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
What about kids?
Most children like pork in a soft roll, with chicken as an alternative.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing generally contains gluten
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
Our chef carves and our staff serve at the agreed time, then clear up the serving area.
China crockery is available on request, at extra cost.
Hunny Hill parties: what to know
Hunny Hill is about 1 mile north of Newport, in the Isle of Wight. We set up the roaster at gardens, car parks, yards and venues around Hunny Hill and the surrounding area. We bring hog roasts to all 125 towns and villages across the Isle of Wight, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Southampton, about 15 miles away.
Among the historic houses close to Hunny Hill are Carisbrooke Castle (1.3 miles south-west) and Gatcombe House (2.9 miles south). Grand settings like these often have strict rules on caterers, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler. Christenings and naming days often start at a local church such as The Man in the Moon, with a hog roast at home or in a hall afterwards. The coast is within about 4 miles, so breezy days are common, so we plan a sheltered spot.
Here we cover the PO30, PO31 and PO41 postcode area, so your party can be anywhere in it. Your party could be at a house on Foxes Road, Chain Lane and Wilver Road, as long as there’s somewhere outside to cook. With the A3020 and A3054 close by, Hunny Hill is simple for us to get to with the roaster. If your venue is just outside Hunny Hill, we also cover Parkhurst (1 mile north), Forest Side (1 mile west), Noke Common (1 mile north), Northwood (3 miles north) and Porchfield (3 miles west). Further out, we also cater in Ryde (6 miles east), Cowes (4 miles north), Sandown (7 miles south-east), Shanklin (7 miles south-east), Ventnor (9 miles south-east) and East Cowes (3 miles north). Hunny Hill is one of the larger places we cover in the Isle of Wight, with lots of choice for parties. Remote sites take a little more planning, so contact us in good time.
A little further out are Carisbrooke Castle (1.3 miles south-west) and Isle of Wight Music Museum (within half a mile south-east). Green spaces nearby include Mill Hill and Briddlesford Nature Reserve.
