Catch the big game, watch local musicians perform, or just enjoy a delicious, home-cooked classic British meal in a cosy, welcoming atmosphere.

The White Horse

Relax and unwind in the beautiful beer garden of the White Horse pub, with views across the Somerset and Gloucestershire countryside, or, if the weather’s taken a chilly turn, head indoors to a country-chic style, cosy dining area. Stay for a few pints while watching the big game, stop for a light bite with your pup by your side, or enjoy something more substantial, with a menu chock-full of modern twists on pub classics – you’ll find your new favourite at the White Horse.

The Badminton

Fancy a pint near Bristol? Pop into The Badminton Carvery pub to sample a range of award-winning Butcombe beers behind the bar – or, if you’re in the mood for something else, there’s a selection of wines, spirits, and non-alcoholic drinks. Sit down for a delicious, home-cooked carvery roast dinner, complete with all the trimmings, in a family-friendly, dog-friendly gastropub.

Catch the big game with a refreshing pint of award-winning Butcombe beer at The Beehive gastropub in Carterton, close to Oxford and the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Relax in the beautiful beer garden, sample the menu full of pub favourites, and bring your four-legged friend with you – everyone’s welcome at The Beehive!
