ENJOY A HEARTY SUNDAY LUNCH<br />
Lined with grand stately homes, gentle green countryside,<br />
cute stone cottages and pretty thatched pubs, the <strong>Great</strong> <strong>West</strong><br />
<strong>Way</strong> is the perfect place to discover the real England. And<br />
what could be more traditionally English than a roast<br />
dinner on a Sunday lunchtime?<br />
A classic English roast dinner has succulent meat, crispy roast<br />
potatoes, fluffy Yorkshire puddings, lashings of gravy, lots of fresh<br />
seasonal veg, and a side of cauliflower cheese if you’re lucky. You’ll<br />
find this traditional Sunday lunchtime meal at many of the pubs and<br />
restaurants along the <strong>Great</strong> <strong>West</strong> <strong>Way</strong> route – often accompanied<br />
by more modern takes on the classic roast dinner, such as Coq au vin<br />
with mash & bourguignon garnish.<br />
Enjoy a tasty Sunday lunch while admiring the spectacular views<br />
of Windsor Castle at the Royal Windsor Pub, head to The Red Lion<br />
Freehouse in the Vale of Pewsey – a picture-perfect English pub,<br />
complete with thatched roof and pretty beer garden. It is also a<br />
Michelin-starred restaurant – so you can expect your Sunday lunch to<br />
be utterly delicious.<br />
