WOODFIRED AT THE WELLHOUSE
The Wellhouse at Lainston House is one of very few UK restaurants to cook all dishes by woodfire and also offers home-smoked food too . Before you decide on your food , ask for the pork scratchings with smoked Lainston orchid apple to snack on which are in a league of their own . Then tuck into the likes of woodfired stone bass , smoked confit duck leg , woodfired pork porchetta or the mighty sharer platter of Tuscan grilled rib-eye steak .

ON THE BARBECUE
You get what you pay for when it comes to quality food . Buy barbecue meat from Beechcroft Farm Shop on Sarum Road or Cobbs Farm Shop in Headbourne Worthy and you ’ ll not only appreciate its full flavour , but you ’ ll also be supporting local farmers . Both shops have an in-house butcher who can prepare meat for you – and provide larger joints or quantities if you ’ re hosting a summer party .
