sunny days are here
Summer at THE PIG
When the sun stretches across our patches, the Kitchen Gardens hit their stride, and the terraces fill up with people who've got the right idea - summer at THE PIG has arrived.
Long lunches that turn into longer afternoons. Cold drinks in the sunshine. Rooms tucked into the landscape where you can leave the windows open and wake up to birdsong. This is the season we've been waiting for.

the quirky village of Bridge
THE PIG-at Bridge Place
This time of year sees colourful wildflowers across our lawns, sprouting spring greens and deliciously smoky aromas from our Garden Oven.

nestled in the New Forest
THE PIG
Our original PIG has the bustling village of Brockenhurst right on it's doorstep with plenty of local treasures to explore.

Our summer Garden Parties are back for 2026!
...and this year is extra special, as 2026 marks 15 fantastic years of THE PIG!
This summer, we’re having a serious season of weekend-long birthday bashes – a stripped back, home-spun, “put on a real party in the garden for the whole gang”, kind of knees-up… and you’re at the very top of our guest list!
Summer recipe: asparagus, preserved lemon & mozzarella
Nothing tastes more like summer than this.
Asparagus, preserved lemon and what? Mozzarella, of course. Not just any mozzarella though, Buffalicious Mozzarella.
