About

Seated in a series of elegant and atmospheric dining rooms, each portioned along the lines of the original Georgian houses they reside within, guests are welcomed as old friends.

A sumptuous yet informal dining experience where guests are taken on a journey of discovery by the knowledgeable and passionate team.

Everyone who visits The Elder leaves having learnt something – whether it’s a story about the history of Bath, the local estates or how the team prepares and cooks the perfect venison. Managing their own game on local estates offers them the opportunity to take guests out to visit these sites, enhancing their experience even further.

Sustainability is at the core of their message - the team goes to incredible lengths to ensure all meat, fish and veg are grown or harvested humanely, carefully and with care.

The wild food offering is unique in the UK - as land managers they control wild deer herds on private estates and process the venison in their own FSA regulated larder. The Elder is the brainchild of Mike Robinson, one of Britain’s leading authorities on wild food and game. His infectious personality and passion for sustainable wild food has converted more than one vegetarian.

Mike is Co-Owner of The Harwood Arms in Fulham, London’s only Michelin Starred pub, also specialising in game and wild food and Owner of Robinson Wild Foods, specialist supplier of the best venison to 15 of London’s finest restaurants.
