The Main Barn has plenty of space and can cater for upto 180 seated guests. Your wedding guests can also sit outside on the large terrace keeping warm by the free standing fires as the sun dips down over the hills and the sky glows a deep dark blue.

The three shepherd huts all have luxurious beds so you can get a great nights sleep after the biggest day of your life.

Inside the huts have a light and airy atmosphere with plenty of tea and coffee on tap and small, simple bathrooms.

Lambs in the shower!

Warm rays of sunshine are not guaranteed, but if the weather is not perfect at least you will have a cosy retreat to your hut.


This place is its people (as well as its views!) and the staff here are simply brilliant! They kept in touch before and after my visit and couldn't do enough to help whilst I was there supplying me with lots of hot tea on a very cold shoot. It is a family business who have great relationships with nearby suppliers and they work as a very good team. The visitor book below is packed with well-deserved compliments.
