Friday 18th April marks the beginning of the Easter Weekend, and what better way to celebrate the first bank holiday of the year than in the garden, soaking up (hopefully!) some spring sunshine? We’re pulling out all the stops to make this a weekend to remember – so gather your friends and family and join us for a few days of delicious food and Easter fun.
We’ll be firing up the BBQ on Easter Saturday and Bank Holiday Monday, serving up juicy lamb , classic burgers and hot dogs, hot off the grill, accompanied by a variety of vibrant, fresh sharing salads. Whether you’re a meat-lover or just looking for some laid-back al fresco dining, it’s the perfect way to enjoy the long weekend.
On Easter Sunday, we’re keeping tradition alive with our much-loved lamb roast, complete with all the trimmings. It’s the perfect centrepiece for a relaxed family lunch – best enjoyed with a glass of wine (or two) and good company.
And it’s not just about the food – we’ve got plenty to keep the little ones entertained too! Across the whole weekend, kids can get creative with arts & crafts, and on Saturday, we’ll have a face-painting station where they can become anything from butterflies to superheroes.
So, dust off your sunglasses, gather your loved ones, and come celebrate Easter with us at The Swan. We’ll bring the food, fun, and Easter vibes – all we need is a bit of sunshine!
Tucked away in the storybook Cotswold village of Ascott-under-Wychwood, The Swan is a beautifully restored 16th-century inn that blends rustic charm with understated elegance—an idyllic setting for the perfect Cotswold wedding.
Steak Mondays at The Swan are back. Join us every Monday evening from 6pm for the perfect way to start your week—a succulent steak, crispy frites, and a glass of hand-selected wine, all for just £28 per person. Whether you’re a local or just passing through the Cotswolds, there’s no better way to treat yourself.
Looking for something a little different to brighten your week? Every Tuesday at The Swan, we bring the bold, warming flavours of world cuisine to the Cotswolds with our Curry Night—a weekly celebration of spices, tradition, and great company.
At The Black Horse, we take our beef seriously. That’s why we’re thrilled to launch our brand-new Wednesday Steak Night — and what better way to start than by celebrating Great British Beef Week?
Fire up your Weekends this summer!
There’s nothing quite like the smell of the grill, a cold drink in hand, and the sound of laughter filling the garden—and that’s exactly what you’ll find at The Swan every Friday evening from 6pm during the summer.
There’s something special about pizza done right—and at The Swan, we’re proud to serve wood-fired sourdough pizzas that bring a little slice of joy to every visit. Hand-stretched from a traditional 48-hour fermented dough, our pizzas are cooked to perfection in our roaring wood-fired oven for a crust that’s crisp and full of flavour.
We’re thrilled to announce that our much-loved Wine Club at The Chequers is back and better than ever! If you’re a wine enthusiast—or just enjoy a good glass in great company—this is an evening not to be missed.
