If you thought the proper village pub was a thing of the past, you’ll be overjoyed to discover Ufford’s White Hart. It’s a traditional village pub restaurant but with super quality dining and the availability of private dining rooms for family celebrations and intimate weddings, plus 12 beautiful bedrooms. Built in the 17th century and Grade II listed, the pub restaurant has been in the family since 2012, and the message of the venue’s Lisa Olver is that The White Hart welcomes guests from across Stamford & Rutland.
“Our bar welcomes those stopping in for a quiet drink or for a meal,” says Lisa. “You’re welcome to visit for morning coffee and enjoy homemade cakes, or to dine from our à la carte menu, served during both
daytime and in the evening. Guests can dine in the bar, the 30 cover restaurant, the orangery - which can also serve as a function room and we offer a private dining room for up to 28 in the room we’ve renamed The Pantry.” “Local ingredients remain important to us, with meat from less than a mile away, the local rhubarb used in our rhubarb cake and even the apples, blackberries & damsons and sloes used in our gins which are all foraged locally.” “We welcome dog walkers, cyclists and ramblers, and for those visiting from further afield, we’ve 12 en suite bedrooms in the main pub restaurant and next door in our barn.”
“With a really good Sunday lunch too, fresh flowers and candles on the table and a garden for the warmer months, we’ve all you need to enjoy a relaxed experience, in comfort, with friendly service and a warm welcome. n
