Christmas Dinner at The Old Swan, Astwood

About this excursion

£39 per person

We invite you to join us at Phil & Clare Hale’s beautiful 17th century freehouse for a delicious three course Christmas dinner with all the trimmings + tea or coffee. We plan to arrive at 7.00pm for a welcoming glass of bubbly.

The historic freehouse is full of rustic beams and character creating a cosy, relaxing and welcoming environment.  Look closely and you will often find their cocker spaniel Tessie snuggled up by the stunning real log open fire! They offer fresh food using local produce wherever possible.

 The cost of this event will include a glass of bubbly on arrival followed by a three course festive dinner with tea or coffee and service charge.
