Food & Drink


	Blockley is blessed with outstanding eating and drinking establishments, all within a short walking distance from Hainault House: The Crown Inn (less than 1 minute) This 16th century country inn is situated in the heart of Blockley and features a restaurant serving dishes prepared with local produce, along with a bar with an open fire and a wide selection of real ales.

Well there is only one place in Blockley where you can get all four – the Great Western Arms. You can choose to sit in the comfy sofa and read the daily papers in the stylish, relaxing lounge bar - or play pool and darts in the pub’s other bar. Andy and Sharon Pearce are the hard-working tenants of the Great Western Arms. The young couple have fallen in love with this pretty Cotswold village pub in the idyllic village of Blockley. Three miles from Moreton in Marsh, Blockley is a near perfect Cotswold village, and a great place to wile away several hours before relaxing over lunch or dinner at the Great Western Arms.
