your wedding



There’s been a revolution in the world of weddings recently. Suddenly weddings are all about the bridal couple and the way they choose to live & marry.


You’d think this was always how it was meant to be, but in the past it didn’t always work out that way.


The best day of your life was often more about the parents who were paying for it, Great-Aunt Martha’s dislike of foreign food and not upsetting the vicar!


Thankfully things have changed and now it’s personal – weddings are more & more a reflection of the happy pair themselves; romantic, green, fun.

For some brides its all about making an entrance; and with us you can choose just about any which way. We’ve had amazing arrivals by classic VW camper, by bike, (motor not push, although that would be sweet), we’ve got a bride who’s planning hers..




We’ve got a little system that works really well at our venue. You know that slightly awkward and annoying interlude when people come out of church or registry office and lots of the congregation end up standing around for ages while everyone goes crazy with the cameras...




After getting everybody organized you may want to extend your celebrations to the day before & after. You’ve got the gathering of the clans the night before, perhaps in time for a family supper at a restaurant or pub, or just a big cook out...












Our Venue

The site is unique. A woodland valley folded around a clear, spring-fed lake created from the old Tregildrans Quarry. Our tipis are dotted about this secret 16 acres clothed in ferns and bluebells, oak and meadowsweet. Undisturbed by modern agrochemicals and herbicides the natural ecosystem has flourished, providing a thriving habitat for flowers and butterflies, birds and mammals.

It's a place a world apart from the rush and clutter of the modern holiday experience, with an atmosphere that makes you forget the world outside, and just lounge, ramble, or potter about in a boat. 
 
 

"The band was fantastic, the company even better and we finished it off sleeping in a tipi and waking to a fantastic day of fishing and swimming in the lake."

 
 

Ceremony & Reception

Walk down a light dappled path past mossy Sherwood trunks, through a little meadow of tipis then over a  stream & down to our pavilion of wood, willow & canvas. It’s bordered on 2 sides by the  stream & under a great ash tree..

Lake & Woods

Wander across the stream over little wooden bridges to a wooded dingly dell, brilliant blue with bells in April/May and a palette of greens the rest of the season. This is where we can hang Chinese lanterns & bunting for really pretty..

Accomodation

The great thing about getting married with us is that you’ve got loads of potential accommodation for your friends and family, meaning that everyone can enjoy a longer or shorter weekend with you, but without the stress of lengthy accommodation...
