HAMPTON FERRY

"Evesham's best kept secret. "

In 1929, Ernie and Eileen Huxley moved to Hampton Ferry to operate a small holding market garden and look after the ferry, which was then the only link between Hampton and Evesham.  

As their business grew, more and more people visited to buy Ernie's bedding plants and asparagus and Eileen began to offer afternoon teas to the weary visitors.  The business developed further and expanded to include a camping site and fishery.  To accommodate early rising anglers, Elieen expanded her cuisine to include sausage and bacon sandwiches, which in turn created the Vale's most famous culinary attraction!  Not one to waste good food, Eileen used the crusts from the loaves of bread to make Bread Pudding.

Hampton Ferry is now home to a holiday caravan site with seventy privately-owned holiday caravans, boat moorings, angling facilities and the award winning Raphael's Licensed Restaurant.

The Ferry hasn't changed much since 1929 and remains Evesham's Natural Beauty Spot.
