Wine, Cider and Beer Festival ~ Friday 22nd to Sunday 24 May

Join us for our inaugural Wine, Cider & Beer Festival - three days dedicated to the perfect pours - over the May Summer Bank Holiday weekend, Friday 22nd to Sunday 24th May.

The festival begins at 5pm on Friday evening, then pouring right through Saturday and Sunday until late. Expect a carefully curated line-up of over 20 beers, 20 ciders and more than 20 grape varieties, served across two bars, both inside and out.

You’ll find first-class breweries including Brakspear, Hogs Back, Brooklyn and Wychwood alongside standout cider makers such as Lilley’s, Old Weston, Sea Cider and Thatchers. Wine lovers can explore bottles from local vineyards including Coolhurst, Stanlake and Albury, plus plenty more besides.

There’ll be plenty of shaded seating in our courtyard, along with sunny spots on the front terrace for those keen to make the most of the (fingers crossed) summer weather.

Our chef brigade will be serving up pub classics and festival nibbles all weekend to keep you fuelled as you work your way through the taps and wine list.

And if beer, cider or wine isn’t quite your thing, don’t worry — the bar will be fully stocked with your usual favourites, including a wide range of no and low-alcohol options. We’ll also have live music on Saturday and Sunday to keep the atmosphere flowing.

Entry is free of charge — simply pop your name on the guest list below.

We can’t wait to raise a glass with you.
