We feel very passionate about our weddings making as little negative impact on the surrounding area as possible. To reduce the amount of traffic, we encourage you to provide a coach or mini buses for your guests to arrive and leave in style. It's also a great way of ensuring the party lasts until the very end!

We have over 25 years experience in the catering industry and have plenty of mouth-watering dishes for inspiration. We pride ourselves on being a marquee venue with in-house caterers to take the stress away from sourcing your own.

We will! We can slice and serve on a platter along with napkins for your evening guests to nibble on as they wish. We will happily save any part of the cake for you to take home.

We have a wonderful bar in the marquee which will be serving your guests the most delectable drinks, from pre-paid packages to cash bar. So we ask that strictly no alcohol is to be brought on-site, any alcohol bought in by a third party will be removed.

Yes - we provide all cutlery, crockery and glassware for your drinks reception, meal and table. Once your meal finishes, we use recyclable plastic glasses to serve all bar drinks to protect our surroundings from broken glass where our sheep graze.

Absolutely. If you would like a specific spirit for behind the bar to enjoy with your guests, just let us know in advance! We are also more than happy to source your favourite wine and fizz for your meal.

We are happy to work with you when is best to set up with your suppliers.

Go for it! As long as it is thrown outside of the marquee and is fresh or dried petals. No biodegradable paper please. Ask your florist to add this to your order!

We strive to look after our wildlife and local dogs! As we are based in a beautiful meadow, this means no fireworks or sparklers.

We allow battery operated (of which there is a huge range!) But no naked flames. We won't take any risks. The marquee has a beautiful fairy lit canopy so when the evening draws in you have all the romantic glow that you need.

We prefer you to choose DJs and solo artists for the evening. No full bands. This is too loud for our venue and we would prefer for our bar staff to get your order right without having to shout! We have loads of great contacts of dance-worthy evening entertainment!

The meadow & marquee are strictly non-smoking areas. We have a designated smoking area for guests.
