The Blue Boar ***With comfortable, well-equipped accommodation, traditional charm and attractive original features, the Blue Boar represents the best of an old English country pub, where traditional values and atmosphere still survive. The oldest parts of the inn date back to the early 1600s and records show that there has been an alehouse on this site since that time. The bar is filled with authentic original character and history, with pictures on the wall, original documentation and memorabilia complementing the charming open fire and original flagstones. For the past 5 centuries, the Blue Boar has been welcoming guests in to enjoy its warm and friendly ambience. Experience the Blue Boar’s historic past and stay in one of the attractive and well equipped en suite rooms. The rooms have all of the modern comforts and facilities you need, while many still retain impressive original features, such as wooden beams and stone walls. The Blue Boar has a fantastic reputation for food from diners around the world. The kitchen team continue to serve up great quality food, both in the à la carte restaurant and in the bar areas. The menus are all about fresh home made pub food and the inn continues to offer the traditional favourites, although chef is constantly trying to improve on their flavour and presentation. The regular specials offer variety, with seasonal local produce, and game in particular, used to best effect. The specials change on a daily basis to reflect the finest, freshest produce available locally. The inn also offers a range of delicious home-made desserts, including banana crunch and chocolate torte. You can enjoy a refreshing pint of hand-pulled real ale in the bar, which always has 4 cask ales on, ready to be pulled. The bar regularly offers at least 2 guest ales which change on a monthly basis. The glass-covered well in the restaurant bar is some 35 feet deep and its pure water was once used in the brewing process. Today, the well is the home of a family of gold fish. The Blue Boar has a great location in the heart of rural Warwickshire, yet within easy reach of the M40, M42 and M5 motorways. By Train: Temple Grafton is on the London Marylebone to Stratford-Upon-Avon train line, with trains running regularly in both directions. Stratford-Upon-Avon is just 4 miles (6.5 km) away.
