Hurstbourne Priors questions
Which station is closest to Hurstbourne Priors?
The closest is Whitchurch (Hampshire) station, roughly 2.3 miles away.
Is Hurstbourne Priors close to London?
About 59 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
What do you need at the house?
Let us know about power and water at the house, and we will say what we need.
Is grass a problem?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, Hampshire included. Find your area.

Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is a favourite in colder months.
How the day works
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. A summer party in Hurstbourne Priors stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:10pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
