Access 

​

From 17:00 hours Friday to set up (marquees from 13:00 hours depending on bookings, to be set up for you to dress from 17:00 hours)

Non-overnight guests must have carriages arranged for 23:45 hours Saturday. We are in a rural location so all carriages must be booked in advance. No cars can be left on site for non-overnight staying guests.

Overnight guests to check-out by 10:00 hours Sunday unless additional nights stay have been arranged.

Marquee companies off site by 13:00 hours Sunday (please arrange your decor take down according to what time your marquee will need to start being taken down as your marquee company cannot clear your decor for you before starting to dismantle).

You must have cleaned and cleared the site by 13:30 Sunday.

​

​

Ceremonies

​

We are licensed venue meaning that you can book a Registrar to come to our venue. Licensed ceremonies can now be held anywhere onsite, including inside either barn, on the courtyard, inside a marquee, in the woodland basin, or in our field. We also welcome Celebrant led ceremonies which can also be held in any of these areas. We are very lucky in Dorset in that we have lovely, and very accommodating registrars. They love anything a bit different such as a back to front wedding, a morning wedding, or a wedding at night by fairy lights. So please feel free to think outside of the box. 

 

Contact Dorset Registration Service to book a registrar. There is a fee of £275 to use our license. This is in addition to any fees due to Dorset Registration Service.

​

Our rustic benches can be used for outside ceremonies, and we can help you to arrange hay/ straw bales if you wish.

​

Ceremonies inside the top barn, our stone barn (Dining Room) can use the light wooden benches inside there as our benches are too long for that barn, or you can hire in chairs if you prefer.

​

​

Eat

​

We want you to have your day just the way that you want it so we don't restrict you to only using our on-site caterers, but any caterers that you bring in will need to provide the appropriate paperwork and must be mobile caterers working off of their own equipment. We do not provide crockery or serving staff. If your caterers require a food preparation area you may wish to work into your wedding plan allowing them to use one of the two barns as a food preparation area.

​

If you would prefer to use our on-site caterers you can contact Jamie of Dorset Catering Services directly. Jamie is able to provide anything from BBQs and Hog Roasts to full sit down meals. He can also provide you with a serviced and licensed bar, crockery and glassware.

​

​

Drink

​

Mobile bar companies are welcome. There is a flat rate of £300 corkage and they will need to be licensed to be able to run a bar on our site, insured, provide their own temporary license from the local authority, and able to provide all the necessary paperwork. We do not provide serving staff or glassware.

​

If you are wishing to supply a combination of your own alcohol alongside your serviced bar you will need to discuss this with your chosen bar company as they will all have their own individual terms and conditions. You will need to provide all of your own glassware, staff to serve drinks and clear glasses (unless arranged with your bar company), and are responsible for the removal of all waste when supplying your own alcohol. 

​

We are strictly a no drugs site.

​

​

Smoking

​

Smoking is not permitted inside any of our buildings, structures or field, must be at least two meters away from any marquee or Tipi, and is only permitted in designated areas next to the courtyard.

​

​

Music

​

Amplified music permitted inside the barns only.

Non-amplified music in marquees to finish by 20:00 hours and moved inside.

Live bands inside to finish by 23:00 hours.

Recorded music to finish by 23:59 hours.

DJs and bands will need to manage and monitor sound levels so as not to disturb and cause nuisance to our neighbours.

This will be overseen by your wedding coordinator and enforced if necessary.

​

​

Entertainment

​

Fireworks and Chinese Lanterns are not permitted. Sparklers are permitted on the courtyard as long as they are at least 3 metres away from any marquees, and you must provide metal water filled buckets to extinguish them in.

​

Bouncy Castles are permitted in the field and require their own generators and all the necessary paperwork and insurance.

​

​

Get Cosy

 

At the top of the field is a campfire area, this can be used by the couple and the guests and firewood can be arranged for an additional charge. This must be arranged prior to the event

We can provide a fire pit for use on the courtyard, firewood can be arranged for and additional fee and must be arranged prior to the event. Once we have put a fire pit in place it cannot be moved and wood must only be added by our staff. 

​

We can recommend suppliers who are able to make you homemade marshmallows to toast on the campfire or fire pit. A hot chocolate bar (alcoholic or non-alcoholic) can be lovely touch.

​

​

Marquees 

​

Our 40ft x 40ft Traditional Canvas Marquee, Rustic Rose, can be provided at a heavily discounted rate of £295. Capacity 120. External Marquee companies are welcome.

​

We also have a 7 metre diameter Little Hat Tipi in cream/ off white canvas to match our marquee which can be hired as outdoor aisle cover, cover for your band, bar, or buffet, as a chill-out area, or as a cover for the lower half of our courtyard.

​

​

Seating & Dining

​

We can provide our Rustic Trestle Tables and Benches to seat up to 120 people in our marquee with a 50% discount off our normal hire prices. If you prefer chairs or alternative tables you will need to hire these in.

​

​

Venue Styling & Decor Hire

​

We can provide this service for you if you wish, please view our packages for more information.

​

Parking

​

There is limited parking on site in the carpark. If you don't want to have overflow parking in the field (which wouldn't look pretty in photos) then we highly recommend booking a mini bus shuttle service for guests staying/ living locally and restrict car parking to those unable to use such a shuttle service. Please encourage guests to car share where possible. We will need you to provide us with the number of cars requiring to be parked on site, and whether they are day or over night guests prior to the event so that we can make a car parking plan with you and organise our staff to assist with parking.

​

​

Accommodation

​

Accommodation is always available on the Saturday night. Staying additional nights may be possible depending on bookings, please enquire for your date. We will be able to provide you with a full list of prices for each night for your guests as prices for additional nights will be less due to not having breakfast included automatically. If there are 25 people requiring breakfast for the additional nights it can be added on.

​

* A minimum of 25 guests are required to stay on site for breakfast to be included in the prices for accommodation.

​

** Babies in travel cots are free if using your own bedding and cot. No breakfast is included. If at an age where breakfast is required then this can be added on for £8
