This month the clocks go back and we officially wave goodbye to the summer season, welcoming Autumn, cosy pub meals, drinks by the fire and festive stays in its place.
Autumn at The Duke on The Test
Take shelter from the cold in The Duke on The Test’s snug nooks and crannies, with warming meals, delicious drinks and festive stays.
Our menu is brimming with hearty meals to keep you going throughout the season, including pie of the day, locally sourced sausages and mash, and of course our classic Sunday Lunch. We recommend topping it off with a delectable dessert; our rich chocolate brownie always goes down well!
End your evening with a drink by the fireplace, enjoying a glass of red wine or a refreshing draft beer. Or for the ultimate after-dinner treat, why not try one of our coffee liqueurs? Choose from our selection of Irish, Tia Maria, Baileys and many more!
A peaceful stay in one of our twelve luxurious en-suite bedrooms means you will be perfectly rested to explore the bustling market town of Romey the next day, after a filling breakfast in our restaurant. We are nestled in the heart of The Test Valley, making The Duke on The Test an idyllic spot for a Hampshire retreat. Whether you fancy a leisurely stroll, challenging walk, fishing in the scenic countryside or hitting the shops, the local area offers it all.
