Back in 2021, we had the pleasure of working with Bel & The Dragon at The Red Lion in Wendover, a historic inn known for its warm hospitality and elegant charm. The goal was to transform their outdoor space into a stylish, comfortable, and functional dining area that could be used throughout the year — perfect for everything from leisurely lunches to evening dining and drinks.
The Challenge for The Bel & The Dragon at The Red Lion
The team at Bel & The Dragon wanted to make their outdoor terrace more versatile, ensuring guests could enjoy alfresco dining regardless of the unpredictable British weather. The space needed to reflect the venue’s refined aesthetic while providing practical comfort and durability for daily use.
Our Solution
To bring their vision to life, we installed a Goal Post Awning equipped with integrated lighting and heating, allowing the space to remain inviting even as temperatures dropped or daylight faded. A carefully selected combination of chairs, tabletops, and table bases provided both comfort and style, harmonising beautifully with the venue’s traditional design. To complete the setup, we added Chablis umbrellas, offering extra shade and flexibility for guests during sunny afternoons.
The Result
The transformed terrace became a natural extension of Bel & The Dragon’s indoor dining area, elegant, practical, and ready for year-round use. Guests can now enjoy delicious food and drinks in comfort, surrounded by a relaxed yet refined atmosphere.
