Inspired by History, Designed for Sharing

And in a delightful nod to our heritage, this Mediterranean-style dining takes on added meaning: The Wood Norton was once the wedding venue of Princess Louise of Orléans, grandmother to King Juan Carlos of Spain, tying our history beautifully into the spirit of this new offering.

Inspired by Spanish tapas and designed for informal, sociable dining, the menu features an enticing selection of snacks, small plates, and sharing dishes — perfect for leisurely lunches or laid-back evening meals on the terrace.

Available to residents and non-residents, expect punchy, flavour-forward combinations like Gambas Pil Pil, Albondigas in rich tomato sauce, and Roast Cauliflower with spiced chickpeas — all designed for grazing and sharing with friends.

A Word From Our Culinary Director

Glynn said of the appointment 

“I’m really excited to launch this new menu at The Wood Norton. It’s a stunning location — full of history and charm — and a perfect spot for relaxed, sociable dining. The dishes are modern but unfussy, inspired by fresh, seasonal produce and designed to be shared. It’s all about good food, good company, and bringing a little bit of Brum love to the heart of the Worcestershire countryside”
