What's on

Something's always on at the Cottage

Our November fireworks, Bartonfest in the field every summer, and live music in the bar in between.

Village pub, big nights

Known for a good night

The Cottage is the heart of Barton - and a few times a year the field behind it becomes the whole village's back garden. Fireworks in November, Bartonfest in the summer, and live music in the bar in between.

Friday 6th November · from 6pm

Fireworks Spectacular

Our Fireworks Spectacular is the biggest night of the Cottage's year. Gates open at 6pm with the outside bar and food trailer running, mulled wine and toffee apples to keep the cold off, and toy stalls for the children. The display goes up over the field behind the pub, and the live music carries on in the bar long after the last rocket.

Free entry - no ticket needed. Wrap up warm, and please leave dogs at home for the display.
