The Events, Workshops, Small Celebrations booking option is for a range of groups.
​
If your event is ticketed (for example, a course or retreat) or you will be using our site for small scale celebrations with additional requirements, then you will be charged in this category. We can advise if this category is more suited for your booking.
​
Get in touch if there is something you want to do that we haven't accounted for here!
​
Our standard group size up to 30 people with a flat charge of £420 per day.
Details:
Facilities
The meadow truly is off-grid but you can book or add additional services if your event requires it.
​
Your party will have complete use of the site, within the designated boundaries. The site will have drinking water and a composting toilet a short walk from where you can put up your tents and if you need a canvas marquee, tables or chairs, we will provide it as an included option. First aid and emergency contact details are kept nearby.
​
Guests do swim in the clean-water fed pond, but at their own risk. We can provide a generator for small bookings but powered/loud music is not permitted.
​
As a part of this booking, a member of staff will be staying on-site nearby and can assist in different ways as needed as well as periodically observing that safe use of the site is taking place.
Additional Facilities
​Workshops and Retreats:
-
If you are planning to sell tickets to make use of the meadow for a profit-making experience for your guests, such as a workshop or retreat of any kind, then please contact us. We may not have everything you need but will work hard to try and make it happen.
​​
Small Parties and Single Sex Celebrations:
-
We have lots to offer if you're looking for somewhere special to celebrate, but we do not welcome bookings that are looking for somewhere to host a rave or become heavily intoxicated. We can erect a canvas marquee and provide basic facilities as appropriate to support your booking. Groups who have used the site have made their stays memorable with their own:
-
Traditional Firelighting
-
Open-fire Cooking
-
Clay-Pigeon shooting (at additional cost and subject to availability)
-
Geocache treasure hunt
-
Bivvy/Wild camping experience

Be aware that powered/amplified speakers are not permitted.

No fires to be set anywhere in the meadow unless by agreement.

Entering the water is entirely at the guests risk.

No cutting or burning of any material taken from the land, including naturally fallen wood.

Observe a 5mph driving speed limit on site.
-
No guests other than those in the designated party.
-
Responsible consumption of alcohol.
-
Drug use is not tolerated.
​
We reserve the right to remove guests at our discretion if we have reason to believe any guest is either putting themselves, others, or the site itself at risk.

A full list of rules will be provided on enquiry.

Deposit is taken either by phone or direct transfer on booking, at 50% of the total booking value (non-refundable if the booking is within 4 weeks, unless due cancellation on our side). A list of guest names will also be taken and the gender ratio (not asked of children). On arrival, the person who made the booking will confirm the complete list of names and pay the total price of the booking. We will hold the deposit till check-out.
​
When leaving the site, a site inspection will be conducted and the 50% initial booking refunded as per the charge agreement. Charges are deducted from the deposit for damage to property, excessive litter or rubbish, or if the party's behaviour leads to significant disruption or nuisance (for example, bringing loud speakers or bringing additional guests).
