Catering

We have some great catering companies and a gastro pub on the doorstep so you couldn’t be in a better location.

Famous for beer, Swaledale lamb, and georgeus cheeses

God’s Own County and Heaven for ‘Foodies’

Famous for beer, Swaledale lamb, and gorgeous cheeses – there’s a local saying that a good Swaledale cheese would roll down the hill from Smarber farm to Low Row village (intact)! Well maybe we won’t recommend that but we can recommend the best of the best caterers around.

Whatever you’re looking for or however many guests you’re entertaining we have a line-up/collection/squadron of the crème de la crème of local catering companies.
