Escape to the Cotswolds

Summer’s best moments are made in the garden—so why not share them with us at The Bear of Rodborough for our Summer Garden Party?

Set in our beautiful gardens in Stroud, this gathering is all about great food, easy company, and the simple pleasure of a day outdoors. We’ll be firing up the barbecue, serving fresh garden pizza, and treating you to handmade artisan ice cream. Lively jazz, a show-stopping set from a top DJ, and classic garden games will keep the spirit high for all ages.

Little ones can dive into the fun with children’s face painting, while the grown-ups enjoy an afternoon that’s as sociable as it is laid-back. There's something here for everyone—whether you fancy a friendly game, a scoop of something sweet, or simply want to relax and soak up the atmosphere.

Bring the family, round up some friends, and come along for a taste of summer at its finest. Book your free ticket now and let us look after the rest.

Reserve your spot here: Book Your Free Ticket. If you’d like to know more, just get in touch with our team at The Bear of Rodborough.

A summer evening is best spent in good company—and you’re warmly invited to join us for an occasion worth sharing.

Join us in Close Tetbury’s Dining Room on Thursday, 16th July 2026 from 6.30pm for a special summer tasting menu experience. We’ll be bringing together fine food and expertly selected wines from Albert Bichot, carefully paired to showcase the season’s flavours.

Expect a convivial atmosphere where every course has a story, and every glass elevates the moment. This is an evening for discovering something new, sharing favourite finds, and enjoying the pleasure of a well-laid table.

Spaces are limited. To reserve your place or find out more, please get in touch with our team at Close Tetbury. We look forward to welcoming you for a memorable night of great taste and warm hospitality.
