Your Accommodation

Why not spread your costs by asking guests to pay for their own glamping accommodation?

Your upgraded wedding suite is our gift to you for your wedding night. 

Many Couples choose to ask their guests to pay for their own accommodation this immediately takes your total venue cost down by approx. £1700!! If like many of our couples you already live together & have children together, why not ask friends & family to contribute towards other celebration items instead of gifts and make it a weekend you all have fond memories of for a lifetime. Who really needs a sauceboat after all!!
