Very easy on the eye, having recently undergone a revamp, this village pub is perfect for a country break. Within close proximity of transport links, a trip to the capital or nearby Petersfield, Chichester or Portsmouth is a doddle. What’s more, nestled between the Queen Elizabeth Country Park and Butser Hill – the highest point on the South Downs – the pub’s surroundings offer plenty of ways to work up an appetite.
Inside, an open fire illuminates the room during winter, making for an exceedingly warm welcome. Comfy chairs and traditional decor inspire a feeling of familiarity, which is continued by friendly staff. When it comes to cuisine, The Hampshire Hog offers everything that a country pub should. From a generous rack of ribs, complete with all the trimmings, to a hearty lentil hotpot with balsamic-dressed salad and garlic bread, there’s no doubt the menu will leave you satisfied. If you’ve got room to consider the delightful selection of puddings – we made sure of it – then do sample the scrumptious cheesecake or one of an imaginative selection of ice creams. To top off a fine meal, why not stay over in one of 20 ultra-modern, stylish rooms and make a real treat of your visit.
