Common questions in Lenham Forstal

Yes, subject to the date and access for the truck or trailer. Tell us about the lane, gates, ground and parking.

Can you plan for allergies?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
