Warwickshire-based business CD Pub Co has added a third venue to its portfolio of food-led pubs, having purchased the freehold of The Lygon Arms in Feckenham from Enterprise Inns. 

The 80-cover pub/restaurant, which has been closed since the beginning of the year, will re-open next month under a new name – The Forest at Feckenham.

“We’ve been looking for the right venue to complement our other two pubs for over a year now and the opportunity to introduce our hallmark Anglo-French cuisine to Feckenham and Worcestershire, was just too good to miss,” said Charles Harris, CD Pub Co’s operations director.

CD Pub Co also operates The Stag at Offchurch, which features in the Michelin Great Pubs Guide, and The Moorings at Myton near Leamington Spa.

Family business

The Forest at Feckenham will offer a wide range of local beers and cask ales along with a range of spirits and wines from around the world, offered by the bottle or glass.

“We are investing in a full scale stylish refurbishment of the pub, both inside and out,” added Harris. “The essence of the interior design will be to bring out its connections to the historical heritage of the former Royal Forest of Feckenham, but with a contemporary twist. 

“Being a family business we’re lucky enough to tap into the professional interior designer skills of Christine Harris, who will be using a creative palette of woodland inspired hues, fabrics and furnishings to bring the pub’s new style and décor to life.

“The chance to introduce our successful formula to Feckenham and Worcestershire for great food, at great value in a great atmosphere is very exciting, and we are looking forward to becoming an integral part of village life in Feckenham."
