Celebrate Christmas with us

Hidden away in the countryside, we feel a world away from the hustle and bustle of Christmas.

Step inside to roaring fires, festive feasts and the kind of warm welcome that keeps guests lingering long after the last mince pie has disappeared. Whether you’re planning a work Christmas party, festive lunch with colleagues, Christmas drinks with friends, or bringing the whole family together for Christmas Day dining, we’ll help make this year’s celebration one to remember.

Just a short drive from Bristol and Bath, we’re the perfect place to escape the everyday and enjoy a festive celebration in one of South Gloucestershire’s most charming country pubs. Settle in, switch off, and enjoy Christmas as it should be – relaxed, cosy and full of good things to eat and drink.

Haven’t been to The Chequers for quite some time - it didn’t disappoint!!! Beautifully decorated for Christmas and log fires - food was excellent and all served at the same time (we were a group of 9), steaks cooked to how ordered - our main server I think was called max was excellent - nothing was too much trouble and he went above and beyond couldn’t have asked for a better night out for food will definitely be returning
