Full Description
You will not be disappointed upon arrival as you drive through the private driveway along a winding tree lined avenue opening into a beautiful location. Imagine your bespoke marquee set in over 5 acres of pasture surrounded by mature trees with beautiful gardens. We have three bespoke packages available for you or alternatively if you wish to use your own caterer you can rent the marquee for the day.
The Croft Room will be available from 2020 for civil ceremonies with a luxury pagoda for your family and friends to be present on your special day with seating for over 60 guests.
It is an idyllic setting with an array of wildlife around you; a photographer’s dream where memorable moments can be captured forever. The sunsets are breadth taking they change the colour of the landscape around you as the sun slowly slips away and the night begins to fall.
We only host one event at a time from April to September to guarantee the best standard to you.

Describe the best wedding that happened at your venue?
Our daughters wedding the atmosphere was fantastic there was such a relaxed feeling around us being in the open countryside, as the day turns to dusk the guests could sit and watch the glorious sunset as the night fell. The bride and groom and guests slept in glam pits underneath the night sky so romantic what a fabulous idea to end a fantastic day.
What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Try to limit the number of DIY projects you take on for your own wedding. While doing things yourself can help to save costs, I think sometimes we forget just how much work goes into them!” Think of the costs for someone to do the work and the brides time remember you do not want to be putting strain on the bride as the special day draws nearer.
What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?
Lovely baskets filled with packets of tissues with the bride and grooms name and the date of the wedding with a lovely verse " a tissue for tears of joy, tears of laughter, tears of happily ever after", plus boxes of confetti provided to all the guests on entering the church.
