THE VENUE
Relaxed Luxury in the Heart of the Woods
Surrounded by open farmland and ancient woodland, the venue features a fully licenced 'living arbour', a stunning natural structure for legal licensed ceremonies, blessings, and handfastings, all set alongside an elegant stretch tent that brings the outdoors in, while keeping you and your guests covered and comfortable.
Our venue is thoughtfully designed to provide everything you need for a smooth, stylish, and relaxed celebration. You’ll have access to our woodland kitchen, unique ‘horsebox’ toilet facilities with baby changing, and ample parking. We also offer viable disabled access to make sure every guest can enjoy the day with ease.
Our covered outdoor cocktail bar is the perfect place for guests to gather, relax and enjoy bespoke drinks beneath the trees, no matter the weather. Paired with our fully licensed main bar, you'll have everything in place for a memorable, summer-long celebration.
With capacity for up to 132 day guests and 160 in the evening (larger numbers by arrangement), The Oak Grove is your canvas for a relaxed, joy-filled wedding in nature, where every detail has been considered, and the good times flow from ceremony to last dance.
