THE PIG★★★

Inspector comments
"Enchanting country house flying the flag for local produce."
Overview
The first of THE PIGs, this delightful country house has a firm focus on food, with the chef, gardener and forager working as a team to create menus from seasonal, locally sourced produce; all ingredients are found within a 25-mile radius. The result of this policy is that menus change daily, and sometimes even more frequently. The stylish dining room is an authentically reproduced Victorian greenhouse, and alfresco eating is possible as there is a wood-fired oven in the courtyard. Bedrooms have eclectic furnishings, good beds and views of either the forest or the garden; two suites with private courtyards are available.

About the area
Hampshire’s varied landscape of hills and heaths, downlands and forests, valleys and coast are without rival in southern England. Hike across the chalk downland of the north Hampshire ‘highlands’, meander along peaceful paths through unspoilt river valleys of the Test, Itchen, Avon and Meon, or explore the lonely salt marshes and the beautiful medieval forest and heathland of the New Forest.
