Our heritage is rooted in our personal experiences travelling the world. At The Candlelight, we are inspired by heritage, a deep respect for the past combined with a bold vision for the future. Our culinary approach is influenced by flavours and techniques from around the world, from the fragrant spices of Cape Malay cuisine to the traditional Sunday Roast and beyond.
Our dishes are created with locally sourced, sustainable ingredients, ensuring both quality and a commitment to our community and the environment. From refined classics to bold, innovative creations, we embrace worldly flavours that set us apart, offering guests something truly memorable and unique.
Home-grown ingredients are at the heart of our menu, delivering freshness and authenticity in every bite. This is a new beginning for The Candlelight in 2025. A journey that blends tradition, innovation, and passion. We invite you to join us in celebrating food that tells a story and flavours that leave a lasting impression.
In August 2024, Gareth & Miranda became the new keepers of the Candlelight with their two teenage sons. After leaving the forces we travelled as a family to Naples, Italy to train as professional pizzaioli and started our very own authentic & award winning pizzeria approved by the Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana (AVPN). Our passion for food grew beyond Italian cuisine and we were fortunate to be given the opportunity to takeover the Candlelight where we can celebrate the combination of World cuisine using great local produce.
Proud to have both served in the British Armed Forces. Serving from as local as RNAS Yeovilton in the Fleet Air Arm to the hostile environments of Afghanistan with 3 Commando Brigade. We understand how difficult it is for service personnel to transition out of the services and so we support the Armed Forces Covenant. Giving opportunities to veterans like ourselves.
We don’t currently have rooms here, so here area few of our friends who could put you up...
