Friday 29th April 2011 - The Wedding of HRH Prince William and Kate Middleton
To mark the Royal Wedding, we hosted a village street party. The road around the village green was closed and tables and chairs set up in the road. Around 200 villagers and many of our customers from further afield came to join the party.
Join us on Wednesday 21st September, 2011 at The Swan at Southrop with Jonathan Scarfe of Field, Morris and Verdin for our second winemaker’s dinner in association with Vin-Est wine merchants of Lechlade.
Come and enjoy your Christmas Party at The Swan...
Monday-Saturday, Lunch and Dinner, 1st - 22nd December 2011
We have a freshly constructed menu for you to choose from. View The Christmas Party Menu 2011. The menu is £29.50 for 3 courses and includes Christmas crackers to get you in the spirit! This year there is no minimum size for Christmas Parties so this isn't restricted to office parties; if you just fancy coming out with a few friends for a Christmas themed meal you are more than welcome.
On the evening of Tuesday 23rd February 2010, locals came to the Swan to support this appeal for the victims of the Haiti disaster.
Southrop Village Fête takes place on Saturday 12th June and this years’ event has a “country” theme.
We had a fantastic turnout to see in the New Year at The Swan and hope everyone enjoyed themselves. The restaurant was full and the bar was packed all night, which created a tremendous atmosphere. After dinner The Stone Saloon, a four piece band played covers from the finest rock bands of the last 3 decades with great expertise had everyone on their feet dancing in the skittle alley until the early hours.

On the evening of Sunday 8th November 2009, we handed the Swan over for the annual village Remembrance Day Auction. The evening consists of an auction of donated items in the skittle alley followed by a light meal. The event was extremely well supported by the village and others and raised a large amount of money for the Poppey Appeal.
On Tuesday 1st September 2009 we celebrated the first anniversary of the Swan's re-launch and invited all the village and customers to join us.
The village fete was held in the gardens of Southrop Manor on 6th June2009, and despite the poor weather there was a good turn out and was very successful. Sebastian and Lana represented the Swan at the fete by overseeing the hog roast. The 2010 fete is being held at the Manor on Saturday 12th June.
Over the past year we have hosted two wine tasting evenings, accompanied by Sebastian’s food. These have been very well received and we look forward to organising more evenings of this sort in the future.
