3 Reasons To Join The Fleur De Lys Mailing List

A Cosy Warwickshire Pub With A Lot To Offer

Way back in 2015, I asked about a dozen locals if they'd be willing to hand over their email addresses so I could let them know when tickets for our annual fireworks night went on sale. This was back when those tickets were literally raffle tickets torn from a book, and folks did not want to miss out on getting their hands on the tiny golden ones.

As a little thank you, I sent them all a discount voucher after the event. A Christmas present, maybe — I honestly can't remember. But they mentioned it to other people, and those people gave us their email addresses too. And soon enough I was writing to them every month with the latest from Lowsonford, and in return for barging into their inboxes, I'd send a different little treat each time.

Here we are in 2026 with thousands of subscribers who let us send them a small thank you every month. Sometimes it's a food offer, sometimes it's money off the bill, sometimes it's a cheeky pint on us. All just so we can gossip and tell them what's happening at the Fleur — which, if we're honest, they seem to enjoy just as much as the bargain.

What Is The Fleur De Lys Newsletter?

On the evening of the first of every month, we send out a newsletter telling subscribers exactly what they can expect from Lowsonford's favourite country pub in the weeks ahead.

Unlike pretty much every other newsletter you'll receive this month, this one is written by hand every single time — with all of our signature self-deprecation and not a whiff of AI. If you're gracious enough to let us into your inbox, the very least we can do is actually sit down and write you something. Inside you'll find pointers on what's coming up at the Fleur and in Lowsonford more widely, links to upcoming events and workshops before they sell out, a heads-up when the menus are getting a refresh, and the monthly discount voucher you can save or use whenever the mood strikes.

Here are three good reasons to sign up.

1. A Welcome Bonus Worth Having

I've spent long enough in the world of online marketing to know I need a hook. So for new subscribers, we send a welcome email with a 10% discount off your next visit, just as a thank you for signing up. There's no expiry date, so you can save it for a special occasion or whip it out that same evening when you genuinely can't face cooking dinner. We've all been there.

2. A Monthly Drinking or Dining Discount

The Fleur De Lys newsletter has now been running for over ten years, which means we've sent out well over 120 separate discount vouchers to our subscribers. Each month it's something different — steak nights, free puddings, money off the bill, free kids' meals. Sometimes the voucher is just for you, sometimes we actively encourage you to drag a friend along. Either way, there's always something worth downloading.

3. Priority Access To Our Events

Some people make the trip out to this little pub on the edge of Henley-in-Arden for one reason only: the events. From FleurFest in the summer to our annual Fireworks Night, we do like to throw a party when the occasion calls for it. We also host creative workshops, educational evenings, co-working days, kids' activities during the school holidays, and the occasional business showcase. If any of that sounds like your kind of thing, being on our mailing list means you'll get first access to tickets for the big events, and you'll hear about new happenings before we announce them anywhere else.

Here at the Fleur De Lys, we're firm believers in giving something back. We know, now more than ever, that every penny and every minute you choose to spend at our little Warwickshire pub is genuinely precious — and we want to say thank you for it. We also want to make sure that historic buildings and heritage businesses like this one can keep going through whatever the 21st century throws at us. If we can persuade you to visit us a little more often than you otherwise might, then we're getting somewhere.

So — fancy joining us?
