The Wellesley Arms

03/09/2026

Got something to celebrate?
We’ve got the venue!

From big birthday parties and family get-togethers to weddings, wakes, christenings, baby showers and corporate away-days, The Wellesley Arms is rather good at bringing people together.

We’ve got a private snug, meeting room, our Stable Block with its own bar, a skittle alley, and, if you’re planning something bigger, you can even have the whole pub to yourselves.

And because we like to make things easy, we can look after the food and drinks too, from a sit-down meal for up to 90 guests to a more relaxed street-food style celebration for up to 250.

Fancy making a weekend of it? There’s even the option for guests to glamp in the garden and wake up to breakfast the next morning.

You bring the people. We’ll help with the rest.

Five pubs. One leaderboard. One winning team.

Something competitive is coming to Inn The Sticks…

Our regular pub quizzes are about to get a whole lot more interesting.

We’re turning our regular pub quizzes into a Sunday evening 12-week Inn The Sticks Quiz League, with teams from all five pubs competing for points, prizes and the ultimate title of ITS Quiz Champions.

Will your Inn The Sticks village pub be the brainiest of the bunch?

So get your team together, brush up on your general knowledge and prepare for some serious inter-pub rivalry.

Maximum 6 people per team.

Season One is coming.

Let the games begin.

Keep watching for all the quizzical updates.

Our latest newsletter has landed. ✨

And this one is a bit of a summer catch-up.

We’re looking back at the very first Food Society Supper Club at The Bull, sharing what’s coming next (including something rather competitive…), taking you behind the scenes at The Bull’s event spaces and re-introducing five pubs, five reasons to make the journey.

There’s new food, new menus, Friday night pizza, Sunday lunches, cosy stays, pub quiz rivalry and plenty more happening across The Tap, The Welly, The Neeld, The Bull and The King’s Arms. You’ll need a cuppa!

In other words, if you haven’t caught up with us lately, there’s quite a lot to tell you.

Have a read and see where your next trip might take you.

Link in bio.

New chefs, new menus, a brand new food series, seafood adventures, wine trips and plenty happening across all five pubs, and dare we say it: Christmas menu planning.

Get your team together, bring your competitive spirit and let’s see who really knows their music.
