The Wellington Arms

Set in the heart of the Hampshire countryside, this charming Grade II listed whitewashed building was once a hunting lodge to the Duke of Wellington. The intimate dining room boasts a wood-burning stove and terracotta floor, complemented by large oak tables and simple antique chairs, original art and beeswax candles, and immaculate table settings. The daily-changing menu is listed on the blackboard and offers a good range of modern British dishes. Dishes are honestly and simply presented with lots of attention to detail, using predominantly organic, home-produced ingredients, including free-range eggs, honey, preserves, herbs and vegetables, as well as home-made bread. Typical starters include line-caught local trout with dill, lemon zest and chilli, or perhaps hand-dived scallops in pancetta with crushed peas, mint and brown butter, while for mains you might tuck into a generous rack of free-range pork, slow-cooked with red cabbage and apple sauce.
