Heartwood Inns reopens Henley-in-Arden Stunner

11 August 2023

The Black Swan in Henley-in-Arden officially opened its doors in August, as Heartwood Inns revealed the latest addition to its portfolio. 

Formerly Brasserie Bar CoHeartwood Inns is part of the Heartwood Collection, led by managing director Richard Ferrier and chairman Mark Derry.

Following an extensive refurbishment, The Black Swan’s Grade II-listed building has restored, retaining many of its original features, including a large inglenook fireplace, wooden floors and snugs.

A new oak-framed extension has been added, housing a garden dining area, leading out onto a deck for alfresco dining.

“The Black Swan marks our 20th Heartwood Inn and we are delighted to bring this historic and characterful pub back to the local community,” says Ferrier. “We look forward to welcoming guests to enjoy our seasonal menus and wide range of drinks, as well as the signature warm welcome from our friendly team.”

Heartwood Inns was recently awarded the top three-star Food Made Good rating by The Sustainable Restaurant Association. Heartwood Collection operates 20 Heartwood Inns and 14 Brasserie Blanc restaurants across England.
