Do join us for what will be another superb evening in our series of The Bushcraft Banquet – this year set in the stunning courtyard of Stanford Hall and kindly sponsored by Petromax/Feuerhand.
Upon arrival, you’ll be invited by our lovely friend (and your host for the evening) Ray Mears, to join him at the side of The River Avon for a refreshing glass of bubbly and a mouth watering selection of homemade Canapés.
Whilst we relax, our Woodland Chefs Kev Keane, Kevan Palmer and their team will be cooking many of the menu items on open fires a short distance away from us.
As the sun sets, we shall take our seats at our round, white-clothed tables in the enchanting setting of the cobbled Stables Courtyard.
Illuminated by colourful Feuerhand Baby 276 lanterns and adorned with woodland flowers, each table seats 8 guests so if you are arriving as a party of 3 or more, please let us know in order that we can reserve places in advance for you.
You’ll be presented with a sumptuous meal, paired with plenty of specially selected wines (and soft drinks).
There will be some live music and opportunity to win some fantastic prizes, kindly donated by our Bushcraft Banquet 2023 sponsors, Petromax/Feuerhand.
