JEREMY Clarkson's new pub is set to be open for business much sooner than he thought.

The former Top Gear presenter took on a new challenge by purchasing the £1 million boozer in Oxfordshire this June.

There was a lot of renovation work that needed to be done on the property, and Jeremy initially said the pub might not be open to the public until 2025.

However, he has now revealed that The Windmill's doors will open next weekend.

Jeremy took to social media to address students who did not receive the results they wanted on their A-levels.

He shared some words of encouragement with them, writing: "Don’t worry if your A level results aren’t what you were hoping for.

"I got a C and two Us, and here I am, 46 years later, with my own pub. It opens next weekend if you fancy dropping in."

Jeremy has previously advertised The Windmill as being a place where 'confusing toilet signs and slot machines' would be banned.

He intends to strip boozing back to the basics at his establishment, which will serve food and drink made with all British ingredients.

Fans caught their first glimpse of the interior when Jeremy hosted an early soft-launch during the Euros. 

The TV personality opened the doors for punters who gathered to watch England take on Spain in the Euro final.

While pouring pints, he joked: "Well we’ve accidentally opened our pub before it’s finished.

"It’s going to be very many weeks before we’ve got it open."

One of Jeremy’s first customers was his Prime Video co-star Kaleb Cooper, who enjoyed a cold one after his recent hospital visit.

As he plans his official opening next weekend, thirsty locals can look forward to drinking premium lagers as well as the farm’s own gin.

According to the pricing board, a pint of the Hawkstone Premium goes for £5.50, with a half sitting at £2.80.

For the Hawkstone Session beer, it’s £5 for a pint and £2.60 for a half.
