The Fox & Hounds, Devizes 📍
We’re still on the lookout for a fabulous new Business Partner to run this charming, thatched pub. The pub’s refurbishment is underway, and it’s being totally transformed 🤩
The pub also has fantastic potential to develop its trade, including a barn that could be turned into additional trade space or even facilities for caravan holiday makers 🙌
The Fox & Hounds is on the edge of Devizes, benefitting from the popular Wiltshire tourist trade, the famous Kennet & Avon Canal and Caen Hill Locks, as well as the town’s vibrant community spirit, regular markets, festivals, and a strong connection to its medieval past.
Are you ready to relaunch a classic and make it your own?
Get in touch via our website or email our recruitment team:

150 Miles for 150 Years – Wadworth’s Anniversary Charity Ride 🚲🍺

On 1st September, our incredible team of riders will set off from the The Kings Arms, Fulham to cycle 150 miles over 3 days, finishing at Riverside Inn, Saltford – just outside Bath.

The ride celebrates 150 years of Wadworth and pays tribute to our founder, Henry Wadworth, who completed a similar journey back in 1869!

We’ll be stopping at some of our fantastic pubs along the way, and raising money for two outstanding charities:

Licensed Trade Charity – Supporting hundreds of pub, bar & brewery workers in difficult times with practical, emotional & financial support.

Julia's House Children's Hospice - A remarkable children's hospice providing specialist care and support for children with life-limiting conditions and their families.

We’re less than one month away, our team has been putting in the training miles, and we can't wait to share updates from the road.

💡 August’s Pub Spotlight: The Barge Inn 💡
This month, it had to be The Barge, because they’re bringing back the epic Bargefest! 🤠
After a fantastic debut last year, they’re saddling up for Bargefest 2025, August 15 - 17, with live music, a bouncy castle and face painting for the kids, and plenty of foodie treats… think BBQ, a pizza shack, waffles, and a dedicated cider bar 😍 Plus, this year brings even more fun with a rodeo bull and a mobile petting farm 🐂 No tickets needed, just turn up and enjoy the weekend!
Set right on the Kennet & Avon Canal in Seend Cleeve, just 10 minutes from Melksham, The Barge Inn is a top spot for waterside drinks, fantastic food, and a warm Wadworth welcome. Whether you’re mooring up on a canal holiday or just popping in with your pup, it’s the perfect place to relax. Inside, cosy corners and canal-view windows await, and if you're celebrating, check out their semi-private function space!
Outside, there’s a garden bar and a variety of seating options, from comfortable sofas along the canal front to a large booth-style area perfect for groups, and a patio with cushioned seating, ideal for alfresco dining 🍽️ With the addition of new festoon lighting, the garden is the perfect place to unwind on a summer evening ✨
So, if you’re in the area over Bargefest weekend (or any other time!), make sure to head down because it really is a must-go 🤘
