On the outskirts of London, in idyllic Surrey countryside, The Black Swan in Ockham allows visitors to swap the fast pace of the city for a serene, rural landscape. Glorious summers are well spent here; The Black Swan's large gardens cater for over 250 guests, so you'll always be able to find a spot in the sun and dine alfresco from the Garden Menu.
The bill of fare changes on a daily basis, depending on which ingredients have been procured from local farms, artisans and specialists. Should you choose a dish along the lines of pan-fried scallops and slow-roast pork belly with cauliflower purée and Parmentier potatoes, the chances are the ingredients would have come from James Knight of Mayfair and nearby Hollacombe Farm. Other dishes that have been known to grace the menu include grilled red mullet and squid with potato and olive cake, and vegetable and chickpea tagine. The inventive British cuisine is well complemented by a carefully constructed international wine list, a selection of real ales from Surrey Hills, Tillingbourne and Twickenham, and real ciders from Westons and Surrey's Garden Cider Company.
The Black Swan, which provides a stylish base for leisurely walks and cycles through the countryside, also hosts superb events, such as wine tasting evenings and farmers' markets
