Supporting local

We are very proud members of the New Forest Marque in line with our passion for “supporting local”. Wherever possible (and depending on what is in season) we source our ingredients from our extensive network of fantastic local producers.

In August 2016 we were awarded “Best Supporter of Local Producers” by the National Parks Association in recognition of our efforts with local suppliers and the way in which we support them in various ways through all our businesses, including championing their offerings via our marketing and social media channels.
