Country pubs don’t come more picture-perfect than The Red Barn, with it’s historic old barn dating back as far as the 16th century, its got character oozing from every beam, yet it’s no fusty old boozer.

Inside feels like a rural retreat with a cosy yet chic vibe that feels grown up, (yet caters really well for all the family,) its no wonder the Lingfield locals have been lapping it up.

With bang up to date interiors they’ve cleverly kept many of the original features but throw in contemporary and vintage touches. With open-fires and nooks and crannies galore for cosy winter lunches, there’s also a large light-filled orangery and a huge outdoor dining area under an awesome awning for lazy summer evenings.

The menu showcases all your favourites from hearty pies, daily catch of the day and, of course, that all important Sunday roast – they even do huge sharing portions (yes please!). Expect premium cuts of meat and the finest British ingredients for an indulgent quality dining experience yet in a relaxed pub environment.

Located in Blindley Heath, just outside Lingfield (where Surrey meets Kent), it’s just minutes from the racecourse and Gatwick Airport, plus close to East Grinstead & Oxted, so perfectly placed for a pit-stop, long lunch with the girls or simply a pint after walking the dog.

The Red Barn is also available to hire for large parties, formal events, weddings and everything in between.
