JOIN US IN THE HEART OF HERTFORDSHIRE
Peach is a collection of really great pubs, mainly in market towns in the heart of England. The Three Horseshoes is an idyllic country restaurant and gastro pub in the heart of the quiet rural village of Letchmore Heath, Hertfordshire. Our ethos is centered on excellent food, a well-stocked bar and service you’ll remember long after the last mouthful is eaten and the last drop is drunk.
A quick pint, table for dinner or an intimate gathering in our private dining room, we look forward to welcoming you into the beating heart of the village where you’ll find a warm, inviting atmosphere and friendly people in front of the bar and behind it.
Just minutes from the M1 and A41 and a few miles from the nearby towns of Radlett, Bushey and Watford, Letchmore Heath is a quiet Hertfordshire village full of charm and character.

We offer true hospitality to friends and strangers alike. As a quality gastropub, we serve great ingredients and fresh, honest food in relaxed, welcoming surroundings, always with a kind word and a sense of fun. Today we have a couple dozen pubs in lovely towns and villages, and an undimmed devotion to Making life Peachy. We have always been passionate about giving back and as we’ve developed and grown over the years, our ability and motivation to make the world a little better, a little peachier, has grown with us. The Bigger Peach shows our efforts to improve communities, equality in the workplace, and the future sustainability of our world. Our achievements were recognised in 2022, when we won Best Sustainable Pub Company at the Publican Awards, and we’re also three star accredited by the Sustainable Restaurant Association.
Set in the heart of Hertfordshire, soak up the atmosphere and beautiful period features of the pub whilst enjoying a bite to eat, a cocktail, or a glass of award-winning wine from our drinks list. We serve food all day and children are welcome to enjoy smaller portions of any of our dishes. We take huge pride in serving the best ingredients we can find, from ethical producers, freshly prepared by our chefs. We’re dog friendly in our bar and outdoor areas, bring your furry friend and stop by soon. On our bar you’ll find a great range of spirits, beers and softs, so whether you pop in for a drink, a business lunch or a special dinner, we promise you a friendly welcome.
We look forward to seeing you soon!
Lee Williams, General Manager
Starting off working at a local restaurant at the age of 17, Lee soon discovered the hospitality life was for him. At 18, he took a short break from a college course he wasn’t enjoying, to become a full-time bartender, which soon led to a supervisor role, and the rest, as they say, is history. Lee’s ethic towards his work, from the beginning of his career, has been people work for people, a happy team and happy guests are the ultimate highlights in his eyes. We love Lee’s positivity and ‘be as happy as I can be and enjoy life’ attitude. We can certainly see why he won the General Manager of the Year award back in 2019 during his time at Las Iguanas, alongside the Manager’s Manager of the Year award, an achievement especially satisfying to him.
A keen traveller, Lee has been fortunate to have visited over 50 countries across the world, experiencing the stunning views of the Northern lights in Iceland, and exploring some of the less popular smaller nations. He found his favourite dishes came from the Balkan states, in particular Bosnia and Herzegovina, where they had amazing meat dishes, paired perfectly with herbs and spices.
Fun fact, before joining hospitality he had once imagined himself an Olympic athlete, having run 800m and 1,500m at county level in his younger years. The discovery of a tempting tipple and indulgent foods in his late teens soon put an end to this, as a group of foodies… we can’t blame him.
If you see Lee around the pub, be sure to say hi!
JONATHAN TAYLOR, POD DIRECTOR
Half Scouse and born in Bedfordshire, Jonathan (also known as JT) is a familiar face in the Peach team. Joining the hospitality game at 14, as a pot wash in a local restaurant, Jonathan’s career was soon flying. He moved on to The Birch, in Woburn, where he worked his way up to become assistant manager at just 18 (impressive indeed!). He then developed his skills with Peach during his twenties, where his hard work was nationally recognised, winning an Acorn Award in 2013. He then flew the nest for a few years before reuniting with us as a POD Director.
A true foodie, Jonathan believes real quality lies in local and spends much of his time seeking out independent restaurants, cafes and bars when away visiting different places. If you ask him about the best steak he’s ever had, he’ll be sure to tell you about a back street restaurant tucked away in Campos, Majorca, a place highly raved about by the locals. Along with a sharp taste for food, he has a passion for wine, and we can’t help but love his “I don’t drink bad wine – life’s too short” approach.
On his days off you’ll find Jonathan on the search for vintage watches, playing badminton for his local team, or making the best cauliflower cheese in the UK (a title awarded by his wife).
Say hi if you spot him in the pub!
