We’d like to give a big shoutout to our wonderful Head Chef Alex 👏

His culinary skills are really shining through at the moment. This is a pizza he whipped up for himself… and it was so good we had to frame it 😂

The sun is finally shining ☀️

We’ve been busy getting the garden ready, with umbrellas up so you can sit back and enjoy it in comfort.

We’ve also added sun cream in both the ladies’ and gents’ toilets—help yourself while you’re here!

Perfect day for some food and drink in the garden 🍻
