Pensons news

WE ARE DELIGHTED THAT NATIVE, THE NEW RESTAURANT ON THE FORMER PENSONS SITE, IS NOW OPEN! YOU CAN BOOK AT TABLE OR OVERNIGHT STAY VIA THE LINK BELOW.

After the success of Pensons over the last five years which included successive Michelin stars and green Michelin stars for sustainability, it is time to hand-over the baton to new management.

We carefully considered which direction to take after closing our doors at Christmas 2023, but instantly recognised that the Native team is a perfect fit to take on the Pensons legacy. The talented duo of Chef Ivan Tisdall-Downes and Imogen Davis have a wonderful foodie pedigree and share many of our values about the importance of amazing food and drink, sustainability and local sourcing. They will make the most of everything that the Pensons kitchen garden, Netherwood Estate and fantastic local producers have to offer.

Inevitably, and quite rightly, they will bring their own magic to Pensons. We wish them every success as they open Native at Pensons, their first countryside restaurant.

Everything else at the Netherwood Estate continues as before, including our beautiful holiday lets and wonderful masterclasses. You can sign up below to keep in touch with Netherwood News, if you would like to do so.

Thank you for all your support and friendship over the last five years. We’d love you to give the same encouragment to the Native at Pensons team as they start their Pensons journey. They are opening here on May 22nd and you can make a reservation and find out more via the link below.
