We are a new venue, rescuing a small hidden country estate, within close proximity of Brighton and Horsham. Private party paddock surrounded by views of farmland, streams, rivers, meadows. Ample space for small gatherings and large weddings. We have a list of recommended suppliers, but if you prefer a giant circus tent with firebreathers and elephants, we are the venue for you! We welcome well behaved dogs, and we can offer a glamping package for up to 14 luxury bell tents. There is an onsite church should you require a religious ceremony, equally we are in the application stage to host civil ceremonies. Hire times are from the day before your event, to the day after, to allow ample time to set up and tidy up afterwards.

“Honestly she was great. Helpful and there when we needed her. I would offer some negative feedback but there really isn't any! She even offered us a boat if the lane flooded!!”
