Your Choice: Two Events – Do One or Both

Two consecutive events – do either, do both – it’s your choice. In the morning, enjoy a Wonderful Wiltshire Winter Walk, and from lunchtime into the afternoon, indulge in an unlimited feast of Seasonal Soups served with freshly baked local bread, local butter, West Country cheeses, and The Royal Oak’s Triple Wiltshire Ham – all with roaring log fires in every room.

Wonderful Wiltshire Winter Walk

Winter is a great time to explore the countryside and see things in a whole new way. I won’t lie – it can be chilly or damp, and mud will be present. But there are also magnificent things to see. The land is far from dead; it’s merely resting, ready for the explosion of new life in spring.

It’s a great time to understand what lies beneath: the geology and structure of the landscape, the shape and power of trees with their skeletal forms naked in the winter wind, and the places where animals live, visible now that the verdant growth of summer is gone.

This is not a race or an effort to cover distance, but rather an opportunity to be outside and connect with the natural world. Take time to look, listen, smell, and think.

Start and Finish: The walk begins at The Royal Oak with a hot drink and a bite to eat (hot sandwich or cake) and ends at the same place.

A more detailed program will be published before the event.

Super Seasonal Soups

Enjoy an unlimited feast of seasonal soups alongside plenty of local bread and butter, hearty cheeses, ham, and other delicious accompaniments – all while warming yourself in front of a roaring fire.

When it’s cold and chilly outside, what better way to cheer yourself than with wholesome, heart-warming food? With an emphasis on local, regional, and seasonal ingredients, our soups are guaranteed to nourish and satisfy both body and soul.

It’s a perfect chance to catch up with friends or meet new people. While you toast yourself by the fire, we’ll look ahead to the coming seasons.

Accompany your soups with bread or sandwiches, high-quality cheeses, ham, and other fillings of your choice. Then go back for seconds—or thirds!

More details on the soups will be available closer to the time. We’ll also email a quick poll to gather favourites and special requests.
