The White Hart stands in the picturesque Hertfordshire village of Puckeridge, and full details of this lovely place can be found via the village website - www.puckeridgevillage.co.uk . The White Hart is a family friendly country pub owned by McMullens Brewery, and is now independently managed by Jacqui Pugh.
Having been involved for many years in the corporate side of Sales & Customer Services, Jacqui felt the time was right to venture into a more hands-on business and contacted McMullens to find out about any existing opportunities. Having looked at a couple of other properties, The White Hart was mentioned as another possibility. Remember - this was purely a business decision... but from the moment of driving into the huge car park of The White Hart, it was more than that - it was love at first sight!
The site is enveloped by fields on two sides - there is a roomy, safe garden for families to enjoy summer days and a cute thatched canopy alongside a covered area for smokers. Walking into the bar - the smell of log fires, the inglenook fireplace with a lintel made of wood from a Viking ship, the stuffed head of a White Hart hanging on the wall - all served to reinforce that original feeling of goosebumps and of being somewhere very special.
Although Jacqui is the sole manager & licensee of the premises, she also has her family living with her - husband Alan runs his own business as a Decorator, daughter Steevi is studying to be a Vet and son Kris is still at school. And one of the surrounding fields is being put to good use - the family pony Freddie has also moved in!
