Hambledon x Luke Holder: Fire Feast

The smell of woodsmoke drifts down the vines, beckoning you to your seat at the long tables on the lawn of Mill Down House. Under the dappled shadow of trees basking in the July sunlight, animated conversations are punctuated with the pop of corks. It’s time to make yourself at home and savour the menu to come. On 11th July, we’ll be joined by Luke Holder, renowned Chef-Director of Hartnett, Holder & Co at Limewood Hotel, who, alongside our own Head Chef, Rob McLeary, will serve up a five-course tasting menu in the place where our story began. Upon communal tables, guests will be treated to a culinary journey inspired by Hampshire’s extraordinary local larder, cooked over a crackling wood fire. Accented by Luke’s love for a grounded, informal way of cooking: think HH & Co’s big-hearted dishes, such joyful bowls of pasta, just-caught fish and meats that fall apart at the touch of a fork. It’s food where sharing is encouraged and stealing a forkful is expected; where both the skill of the chef and the quality of the ingredients shine. You’ll enjoy a plethora of dishes, from tantalising nibbles to vibrant mains, accompanied by live music and unmatched views across our Home Vineyard. With your tickets, you are welcome to bring a bottle of wine from home (£10 Corkage Fee applies) - a great excuse to open that special bottle. Additional drinks are available to purchase at our bar. Be our guest at one of this year’s most memorable events. Spaces are limited.
