Smith & Clay Butchery

Working with only the best farmers, Smith & Clay source the finest produce in the area. Their commitment to supporting their rural community led them to being named National Butchery Champions in the Countryside Alliance Awards 2019, and drew our attention! Pat offers a bespoke butchery experience for our chef’s and works closely with our team, hand preparing each order himself to ensure only the very best reaches your plate.

Marks Cotwold Bakery

Based in Chipping Norton, Mark and his multi award winning sourdough have become quite the household name in The Cotswolds, and further afield. With a loyal following for miles around, and with the most charming team, there was only ever going to be one choice for our bakery needs and Mark & Sharn go above and beyond for us.

Eliza May Pottery

All of our crockery and dinner plates are bespoke and were lovingly handcrafted by Eliza and her homespun business, Eliza May Pottery. Eliza can usually be found in her studio at the end of her garden in Wigginton, in the Cotswold countryside. Her hand thrown pottery is both natural and feminine and is the perfect pairing to our menu which focuses on sustainable, finely sourced ingredients presented beautifully – Eliza’s plates certainly showcase our chefs’ talent!

We also keep a limited edition retail range of 100 Acre products for our guests to purchase and take home; please do let us know if you wish to see our price list.

Horvarth’s Honey

One of our gardeners Emilian has a small family run business in Transylvania. They produce Acacia, sunflower, rapseed and mixed flower honey. To obtain the best honey they travel according to the seasons and will spend up to three weeks in one area in order to have the best harvest. They spend three months of the year alone collecting honey from all their locations. It is a labour of love, 100% organic and is why our chefs proudly use it daily from marinating our infamous chicken thighs, to drizzling over our breakfast porridge.   

ACEsnaps Photography

Amelia from ACEsnaps Photography is a Cotswolds based portrait and lifestyle photographer. Working with the mantra “Authentic, Creative and Empowering,” Amelia manages to capture the real personality of The George in her photography, and we find working with her to be an absolute dream. Amelia has the rare talent to personally connect with her environment, which shows consistently in her work and makes her highly recommended and sought after!

Sandi’s Jam



Sandi is a jam maker and baker extraordinaire! Having lived in Barford for over 30 years, Sandi can often be found at her stall at the village market selling her jam, marmalade, chutney and other homemade preserves where she has created quite a name for herself in the process. Sandi utilises the fruits growing in her own garden to produce the mini jams you find on your morning breakfast table here at The George – an added touch that really does make quite the difference!

Georgia Fiennes Artwork

Our floral adorned farmyard animals that grace our restaurant walls are the fine and specially commissioned work of Georgia Fiennes. Combining a love of animals, flowers, interiors and textiles into her colourful, whimsical paintings, Georgia paints every day in her little pink studio at the bottom of the garden. Georgia works mainly on commissions but also exhibits regularly and her work hangs in collections around the world.

Cotswold Candle Co



The Cotswold Candle Company was lovingly set up by Polly in 2015.  Polly has always believed that with the purest of smells one can create memories of people, places and special times which is why you will always find her hand poured candles and diffusers lit and dotted about the pub on a daily basis. She offers a broad and beautiful range of scented candles, reed diffusers and room sprays.
