What catering options do you have?

The sky really is the limit when it comes to one of the most important elements of your day.

You may ponder the possibilities of a fun filled festival vibe, with gorgeous little street food stalls for your guests to browse at will. Whatever your heart desires, our incredible in-house catering team and extraordinary chefs can bring your vision to life.

Where is your venue location and can I have my wedding ceremony there?

Our stunning locations are set among the beautiful Kent countryside in the picturesque village of Knockholt. A local celebrant offers you the opportunity to experience your own bespoke wedding ceremony in our enchanting woodland setting. Your nuptials can be formalised at a local registry office.

Is your venue available all year round?

Our beautiful wedding venues are available annually from April to October, with a few prime dates remaining for 2021 and 2022.

What makes your venue unique and what are the benefits of a Tipi or marquee wedding.

Every bride and groom is unique and as such all of our weddings are bespoke and tailor made with your vision in mind. We create your wedding specifically for you, which means that no two weddings are ever the same. Our personal approach and the complete and utter flexibility that our venue offers, guarantees that you will never feel as though you have climbed onto a wedding conveyor belt. We limit the amount of weddings we present each year and instead choose to dedicate our time, care and expertise to our couples, guaranteeing a wedding beyond your wildest dreams. Bringing the outside in, our delightful Tipi's blend perfectly among the natural beauty of the landscape. A wonderful alternative to a traditional marquee, their striking silhouette will inspire and seduce, making your wedding truly unforgettable. For a more traditional flavour, there is always the Pole or Pearl tent to call upon, or if you picture a more contemporary vibe, our stretch tents tick all the boxes. Our Tipi's and marquees offer you flexibility and creativity, without guest number restrictions and therefore no wedding is too large or too small.
