ABOUT US.
The Swan
Our community hub
The Swan has stood for over 350 years in our little village of Enford which sits on the River Avon, just 7 miles north of Stonehenge. It has seen many changes in this time as the village has grown from a small farming community to a popular home for locals and commuters alike. When you visit us, we take pleasure in sharing this heritage with you. The photos and postcards you'll see in the pub are copies of ones loaned to us by villagers who have lived in and around Enford for many years or from keen collectors of local history memorabilia. Some even date back to the late 1800s.
As the villagers watched their local bakery, garage, post office and shop disappear over time, they were deterined to keep the pub as the village's last remaining amenity. In fact, the building is still owned by a small group of villagers who are as passionate as we are about our unique public house.
This is where you find The Swan today. At the heart of its community. We serve locals not just from Enford but from the surrounding hamlets of Coombe, Compton and East Chisenbury as well as the larger villages such as Netheravon, Upavon and Durrington.
Our Grade II listed building has historic significance and is in a conservation area which runs through our pretty village to the south and north. Swans nest just across the road and are often seen with their cygnets from Enford bridge which links the village to the main A345. The National Cycle Network also runs directly through Enford and we back onto Salisbury Plain which is a popular walking spot, especially with Buster! We are popular with cyclists, walkers and tourists as well as villagers who all blend together to create a special atmosphere unique to The Swan.
Hannah Timperley
Operations Manager
I am delighted to introduce myself as the new operator of The Swan. My name is Hannah, and I am thrilled to become a part of this wonderful community. I bring with me a deep passion for hospitality, a love for good food and drink, and a commitment to creating a welcoming and vibrant atmosphere for everyone.
My journey in the hospitality industry began over a 25 years ago in a small, family-owned pub, where I quickly fell in love with the energy and camaraderie that a great pub can foster. Over the years, I have done pretty much every job in food apart from being a Chef!
I firmly believe that a pub is more than just a place to enjoy a drink – it is the cornerstone of the community, a place where friendships are forged, stories are shared, and memories are made. My vision for The Swan is to create a warm, inviting space where everyone feels at home. Whether you are here to catch up with friends, enjoy a family meal, or simply relax with a pint, you can always expect a friendly welcome and excellent service.
To celebrate this new chapter, I would like to invite you all to a Grand Reopening event on Friday 2nd August. Join us for an evening of drinks, delicious food, and live music. It will be a fantastic opportunity to meet you all, share my vision for the pub, and listen to your thoughts and ideas.
Thank you for welcoming me into this incredible community. I am truly excited about the future of The Swan and look forward to many wonderful times ahead. Here's to new beginnings and to making The Swan the best it can be!
Cheers!

Month two coming to an end!
18th September 2024
As we wrap up our second month in business, we couldn’t be more excited to reflect on the incredible journey we’ve had so far. It has been a time of learning, growth, and, most importantly, delicious food—and none of it would have been possible without the dedication of our amazing team and the addition of our new chef, Liam O’Sullivan.
From day one, our team has worked tirelessly to create a welcoming atmosphere and deliver exceptional service. Every member, from front-of-house to back-of-house, has poured their heart into ensuring that every guest leaves with a smile. Their commitment to excellence has been the cornerstone of our success, and we are grateful for their hard work and enthusiasm.
A special shoutout goes to Chef Liam, whose arrival has truly been a game-changer. Liam’s innovative approach to cooking and his dedication to using fresh, locally-sourced ingredients have quickly become the highlight of our menu. His creativity has not only set a high standard for our food offerings but has also introduced our guests to a new world of flavors. The response to his dishes has been overwhelmingly positive, and it’s clear that his vision is resonating with everyone who walks through our doors.
This first two months have been a whirlwind of excitement, challenges, and triumphs. We’ve loved every moment of it, from crafting the perfect dish to seeing our guests’ delighted reactions. We’ve also embraced the invaluable feedback we’ve received, which will guide us as we continue to evolve and improve.
As we look ahead, we’re thrilled about the future and the continued growth of our beloved Swan Inn. With a talented team and a visionary chef like Liam leading the way, we’re confident that the best is yet to come.
Thank you to everyone who has supported us during this inaugural two months. Your encouragement has been a driving force behind our success, and we can’t wait to share many more memorable experiences with you. Here’s to many more months of delicious food, great service, and the joy of bringing people together around the table!
What an opening!!
16th August 2024
After a 7 months of closure, The Swan Enford has finally reopened its doors. Opening night was a fantastic event with around 200 people coming through the doors. We served a hog roast and the bar was 5 deep for hours! Nestled in the heart of the charming village of Enford, our beloved pub boasts a charming interior, a revitalised menu featuring locally sourced ingredients, and a warm atmosphere that pays homage to its heritage.
Join us for an unforgettable dining experience, whether you're tucking in to tasty dishes in our cozy restaurant or enjoying a refreshing drink in our beautifully landscaped garden. The Swan Enford is not just a place to eat and drink; it’s a community hub. Come and celebrate the successful reopening of a cherished local treasure and watch this space for plenty of new and interesting ideas coming your way!
