About Exclusive Group Bookings

The Long Hall is used to socialise and dine together as one large group. The exclusive use rental includes all the crockery, cutlery, glasses, place settings, tables and chairs and all the trappings for a fine dining experience.

There are fairy lights giving the Long Hall that extra special celebratory feel. You are free to add your own touches to the decor in the Long Hall too to make it your own.

Trip Advisor Travellers Choice - Best of the best

What a fabulous property. Our every need and comfort catered for. We stayed here to celebrate my 70th and it was a lovely lovely time with our family. Thank you so much. Such a massive amount of thought has gone into this property, we wanted for nothing. We will definitely be back!

We just wanted to say a big thank you for making our wedding weekend so special! It was flawless from start to finish and we couldn’t have hoped for a more perfect day! All our guests were stunned by the accommodation and the attention to detail was spot on. We wouldn’t have changed one thing from the weekend, so thank you! We’ll be recommending you to everyone!

We all came together for a family wedding and we want to say a HUGE thanks for making our stay so wonderful. The barn and other cottages we had the pleasure of staying in are phenomenal. Amazing quality, such attention to detail, outstanding in every way.

What an absolutely fantastic place. Spotlessly clean and everything you could possibly want and more!! We’ve stayed at lots of venues as a group on weekends away and this will be hard to beat! Would come back here in a heartbeat and will be telling everyone about this gem of a place.
