Jeremy Clarkson's Plans for Cotswolds Pub Expansion Revealed: Upstairs Bar, Outdoor Drinking, and More

DETAILS of Jeremy Clarkson’s renovations plans have been revealed as he plans to completely overhaul his £1 million boozer in an exciting move. 

TV presenter Jeremy, 64, is planning to turn the neglected property into a thriving local pub. 

Fans got a glimpse inside Jeremy’s pub, The Windmill, which is located near Burford, Oxfordshire, earlier this year when he temporarily opened it up for the final of the Euros as England faced off against Spain. 

However, Jeremy then closed the pub again, as it wasn’t ready to be opened to the public permanently. 

The Sun columnist previously stated that the pub might not be open to the public until 2025, which is most likely because of the extensive renovations he has planned. 

Jeremy plans to give his newly acquired Cotswolds a fresh lease of life as he restores it to its former glory, and then some. 

The Clarkson’s Farm star has lodged an application with West Oxfordshire District Council that details plans for an upstairs bar and a request to extend the alcohol limit so sales can be made outdoors too. 

According to Express, supporting documents for the application state: “To update the floor plans to include a bar on the first floor, extend the licensable area outside the premises and include a temporary tent in a fixed location.”

A spokesperson for West Oxfordshire District Council confirmed: “We have received an application to vary the Premise Licence at the Windmill Restaurant. It will follow the legal process for an application for this type, which starts with a 28 day public consultation before the council determines the request in line with national guidelines, taking into account any feedback received.”

Jeremy enjoys the support of local residents in his plan to bring back the Windmill pub. 

After purchasing the Windmill, the Clarkson’s Farm star began to reveal some of the changes he’d be making in the local boozer, like banning “confusing” toilet signs. 

Jeremy also confirmed that he only plans to have “well-priced, British-grown food” on his menu, along with his Hawkstone Beer. 

Fans caught a glimpse of his new Hawkstone beer pumps when the former Top Gear Presenter temporarily opened the pub for the Euro final.

Jeremy envisions a “fun” and homely pub featuring bar billiards, darts, and a garden, as well as a place where he can enjoy a Sunday meal with his granddaughter.

He also plans to incorporate bar games, while banning noisy TVs in the establishment.

Clarkson's Farm began streaming in 2021 and follows Jeremy Clarkson and his team managing Diddly Squat Farm in the Cotswolds. Here's a 'who's who' of faces in the Clarkson's Farm cast.

While it may not be open to the public again until 2025, The Windmill will temporarily open its doors again for a pre-booked wedding event later this year.
