Welcome

Chestnut was born from a deep love for our region—the people, the produce, and the communities that make the East of England so special.

What began as a single pub in Moulton has now grown into a thriving family of pubs and Big Houses across Cambridgeshire, Essex, Suffolk, and Norfolk.

People are at the heart of everything we do. At Chestnut, you are more than just one of a team—you are welcomed into a community where your contributions matter, your growth is supported, and you will feel part of something bigger.

Why work with us?

We want to make sure our team feels supported both inside and outside of work. That’s why we go beyond the basics and offer a generous benefits package that truly sets us apart.

From bonus schemes, reward initiatives and discounted stays to annual team party & away days.


It’s not just about having a job—it’s about belonging to a community where you are valued, supported and celebrated.
