Summer food events at Swinton Park
Swinton Park is offering three different summer food experiences this summer.
Simon Crannage Summer Selection
This is a lunchtime event, with four themed menus running during the summer months, each with a focus on the fresh seasonal produce sourced from the hotel’s walled garden, surrounding estate, or Yorkshire countryside. The three course lunch costs £24.50 per person, and guests are welcome to linger after lunch and enjoy a walk in the 200 acres of parkland and gardens. Booking essential.
Themes and dates are as follows :
- Asparagus and Estate Trout (17 – 29th May)
- Spring Lamb and Garden Greens (14 – 25th June)
- Lemon Sole and Walled Garden Feast (16 – 27th August)
- Venison and Early Autumn Vegetables (20 – 30th September)
Alfresco Barbecue Dining – 11th June, 23rd July & 20th August
For those who are looking for something really out of this world, this event is perfect for the intrepid diner. Join us at our restored Deerhouse in the Parkland, for an alfresco barbecue dinner. Sensational food is served to you by our chef at your table, tasting all the better for being outdoors, with candlelight, a starlit sky and a blazing fire to work their magic. The two course meal costs £25 per person (bookings for tables of four or more)
