The menu, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce make the roll, just as they should.
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, so it stays hot and juicy right to the last roll.

- Power for lights in the evening
- A safe distance from marquee walls, buildings and trees
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
