All of our venues are popular for special family occasions, such as birthdays and anniversaries, due to their friendly atmospheres and delicious food. We can provide cosy private dining rooms for smaller parties or you can take over an entire restaurant if you’re a large group. Fostons Ash is particularly good for families with children as we have a beautiful garden and playground for them to enjoy.

Set in the heart of Minchinhampton Common, The Old Lodge is the perfect place to celebrate your wedding. With spacious gardens and beautiful views across the Stroud Valley's there is nowhere more relaxing.

We know that weddings can be stressful events to organise, so let us share some of the load. At the Old Lodge we can handle every aspect of your reception including welcome drinks, food and decorations.

Our venue has 3 beautifully licensed rooms for ceremonies up to 100 people including our outdoor pagoda, meaning you can enjoy your big day with ease, keeping your guests in one place.

The Old Lodge can also accommodate you and any guests with bed and breakfast, so you don’t have to worry about how to get home at the end of the evening.

The Cotswold Food Club offers a selection of inviting venues in the Stroud Valleys that can cater for everything from a pint and a pie to an elegant wedding. The group's own farm in Woodchester supplies a limited amount of lamb and Gloucester Old Spot pork and venison, supplemented from farms in Gloucestershire, therefore offering only traceable, free range meat. The pubs and hotel are set in historic buildings amid beautiful Cotswold scenery and have a laidback, family friendly atmosphere: think log fires and snug chairs for chilly evenings, lovely gardens and terraces for the summer months, and welcoming, knowledgeable staff who are always happy to help.
