Add The Shed or The Out Barn as your shared dining space and come together for an evening around the table. Kitchen and dining-space hire are arranged separately from your accommodation, subject to availability.

A few useful details.
Does booking several cottages include a group space?
Group spaces and the catering kitchen are booked separately. Your proposal will explain what is included and what costs extra.
Can we prepare and share a meal as a group?
Yes. You can hire our catering kitchen alongside The Shed or The Out Barn, giving guests staying across several cottages somewhere to prepare food and dine together. Tell us your group size and plans so we can confirm a suitable layout, hire times, availability and costs.
Does the planner show live availability?
It suggests rooming combinations from the accommodation layouts. It does not check dates, calculate accommodation prices or reserve cottages.
Can we have the whole site?
Yes, a whole-site takeover requires every cottage and both cabins. Ask us to confirm dates, exclusive spaces, hire times and the full inclusions in your proposal.
