The
Hardinge Arms is an historic building in the affluent South
Derbyshire village of Kings Newton. Dating back to the 16th
Century, The Hardinge Arms is the home of the famous Newton
Wonder apple. A rosy-red cooking apple, which was also sweet
enough to eat after being stored for a few months. The Newton
Wonder was traditionally used in mincemeat and stuffing for
turkey at Christmas. William Taylor, the then landlord cultivated
it at the rear of the pub (once an orchard) from a seedling.
Following a major and meticulous restoration involving the
local conservation officer, The Hardinge Arms has been acquired
by it’s present owners David and Tracey Pearson ex head
chef at the Riverside Hotel Ashford in the Water, Derbyshire.
David, Tracey and the team would like to give a warm welcome
to walkers, families, bikers and all race goers. David is also
a keen motor sport fan and has raced competitively over the
last 15 years in a number of race series.
Kings Newton is quoted as 'a gem of an old English village
with a great variety of well cared for old houses covering
a wide age range, which all blend superbly together as a whole’.
Kings Newton is contained within the Parish of Melbourne, South
Derbyshire which became the centre for the supply of Fruit
and Vegetables several centuries ago, this is still evident
in the area today.
The M1 and M42 motorways are accessed within a 5 minute drive,
as is Nottingham East Midlands Airport, Donington Race Track
and Exhibition Centre and the Donington Grand Prix Collection.
