Our Suppliers

Mark Jones

Despite having Smithfield market over the road we are interested in complete traceability and use a Welsh butcher who delivers produce to us himself. We feel sure you will be impressed with the quality of his lamb, Gloucester Old Spot Pork as well as his hand reared organic chicken.

Organic Chicken

"I have been using the same supplier for the past eight years - Craig Farm, Dolau, Llandrindod Wells, Powys. The birds are reared from day one on a special feed which consists of cereal, grain, vegetable protein and a vitamin/mineral supplement. All feed is guaranteed to be free from genetically modified feedstuffs. The birds are reared in small groups in six acres of farmland. They are free to roam during the day and are put in at night to roost. The birds are slaughtered on the farm and allowed to mature for twenty four hours."

Welsh Free Range Lamb

"I buy my lambs mostly from Skirid Farm, Libinus, Brecon, Powys. I use black mountain lamb crossed with the Aran...you just can't beat it. The lamb wanders for miles over the Brecon Beacons eating the wild grass, herbs and heather while also licking the rocks for natural minerals. The lambs are all roughly 22 Kg and are hung for ten days."

Gloucester Old Spot Pork

"I have been using GOS pigs for nine years, all from the same supplier - Wendy's Farm, The Paddock, Bishops Lane, Brecon. This is a small farm which produces free range chickens and free range GOS Pork. The farm produces about ten pigs a week and I take them all. The breed originated from the apple orchards of Gloucester. They are very lazy pigs but the best tasting as the meat is a little sweeter. Their feed is mostly vegetables from local farms and also the odd chicken egg when they steal them!"

Pastificio Caponi

Egg noodle pasta from Pastificio Caponi from Pisa who have spent the last 40 years perfecting artisanal pasta making. Dried at ambient temperatures which takes 4 days.

Secretts

A farm in Godalming, Surrey supply us with their produce which they grow without the use of fertilizer or pesticides. We know the farmer personally and recommend their heirloom varieties of beetroot, onions and potatoes amongst others.

Alain Milliat
