THE PUNTER
Across the courtyard from The Punter pub is The Barn: a rustic dining room filled with paintings, plants, candles and charmingly mismatched furniture. You and your group (of up to 40 people) can enjoy exclusive use of the space starting from £200, and the food on offer is elegant, exceptionally tasty pub grub: think duck confit with dauphinoise potato/epic burgers. thepuntercambridge.com
THE MEWS AT BEDFORD LODGE
The four-star Bedford Lodge has a solution for when a private dining room just isn’t enough luxury for you: your own private house! The latest addition to this Newmarket hotel, The Mews takes things to the next level, with not only its own dining area but three luxurious bedrooms. Hire it on an exclusive basis (prices start at £1200), and you can enjoy all the trappings of the hotel but in your own, intimate setting. Come dinnertime, you have the option to dine in your own private space (seats up to eight), or at the hotel’s Squires restaurant: either way you’ll be treated to the creative flair of this 2 AA Rosette eatery. As well a special meal with bells on, The Mews can also be hired for hen parties, bridal parties and groups of wedding guests looking to elongate their stay. bedfordlodgehotel.co.uk
