MAKING MEMORIES AT THE CROWN INN

Treasured memories across the generations

Our splendid building has played host to many gatherings over the course of its history, making it a truly special place for so many of our guests. We are proud that The Crown still evokes so many happy memories for visitors and we work hard to protect this special legacy so that future generations will enjoy it too.

Trying to catch the sunshine this weekend? Our Gi Trying to catch the sunshine this weekend?

Our Gin of the month is certainly doing that ☀️

A little bit of Cornish sunshine in a glass. Tarquin’s Dry Gin holds fresh piney juniper and zesty lemon sherbet notes rounded with creamy sweetness. It’s like stumbling on a citrus grove in the warmth of the Cornish sunshine. Perfectly paired with Fevertree Mediterranean Tonic, garnished with pink grapefruit and a sprig of thyme.

Here’s to the Spirit of the weekend…and if you’re looking for the sunshine, it’s here in Chiddingfold. ☀️

Have a wonderful weekend.

These two old ladies are sunbathing beauties today These two old ladies are sunbathing beauties today 🌸☀️

Sometimes it just good to be still and take a moment to enjoy what’s around us. The blossom on our ancient hawthorn tree is just glorious right now. Love these two old ladies…So very old and yet bursting with life. (Now there’s a thought for the day 😉😊)

Join us on the deck or terrace and watch the world go by….🥂

Not only are the magical gardens at their most beautiful at this time of year, these hidden works of art amongst the rhododendons, camellias and bluebells, are just stunning.⁠

With the news full of price rises we stumbled acro With the news full of price rises we stumbled across these from our archive…

The newspaper cutting promises a 3 course lunch AND coffee for £1! And the bill was sent to us by a lovely couple who still are regular customers…it’s the bill from their Wedding! A huge amount of money in 1974.

Inflation, recessions, pandemics…we like to think if the walls could talk, they’d tell us they’d seen it all before and everything WILL be ok. 

In the meantime, there is food, wine, ales, family and friends and here’s hoping today’s bills will make us all smile in a few years😉 😁
