Christmas near Stratford-upon-Avon

Celebrate this Christmas at The George Townhouse

Shipston-on-Stour does Christmas the old-fashioned way — a small market town on the edge of the Cotswolds, twenty minutes from the festive bustle of Stratford-upon-Avon, where December still feels like it belongs to the locals. At the heart of the High Street sits The George Townhouse: fires lit, a proper pint on, good festive food coming out of the kitchen and dogs snoozing under the tables. Whether it's lunch with the family, an evening with old friends or a mulled something on the way through, this is Christmas without the fuss. Come on in.

Christmas Menus

Nothing beats pub food done well at Christmas, and that's exactly what our kitchen has planned. Our festive menus are built on the season's favourites — generous, warming plates that make December lunches longer and evenings merrier.

Right through the month, The George hosts festive gatherings of every kind — family meals, catch-ups with friends and works celebrations alike, all with a fire going somewhere nearby.

And on Christmas Day, hand the whole thing over to us. A full festive feast with all the trimmings, from starters to roasts to puddings, and not a sprout to peel in sight.

December tables go quickly in Shipston, so book yours early and settle the where before the who.

Festive Gatherings

For celebrations that want a space of their own, The George has a few tucked-away corners made for the job. The Snug, The Garden Room, The Carriage Room and The Parlour Room can each be reserved for private festive get-togethers — same menus, same welcome, your own room to enjoy them in. Tell us the occasion and we’ll find the right fit.
