STAYING AT WARBORNE FARM
There is accommodation on site for most people, who are travelling some distance, to stay.
Please read info on accommodation below.
If you’d like to stay at the Wedding Venue, just tick the box on the RSVP form below to register your interest in the accommodation and we’ll get back to you with options once we know numbers.
We will group friends / family together!
There are 5 barns in total, each sleeping 6–8 people. Every barn has its own kitchen, lounge, TV, WiFi and showers/toilets. They’re really lovely places to stay. You even have access to the farm… picking veg from the tunnels, collecting eggs from the chickens, and wandering over the fields and orchard.
Accommodation will be fairly communal and relaxed, with a mix of double rooms (some with sleeping hatches), bunk beds, single beds, etc.
Accommodation is priced per person and covers the whole weekend, from Friday afternoon to Monday morning.
Even if you’re only planning to stay for one or two nights, the price remains the same. You’ll have full access to the accommodation for the entire weekend.
Prices per adult: £180–£220 for the weekend
(plus a couple of £160 beds)
Family of 4 (2 adults, 2 children): £460 for the weekend
Very young children: free (if using their own beds/cots)
We’d love it if you could register your interest for accommodation on your RSVP below, and we can then discuss your preferred sleeping arrangements!
The accommodation set up
Wedding gifts
The most important gift to us is having you share our special day. However, if you were thinking of giving a gift, something towards our honeymoon would really mean a lot to us.
We are hoping to do an exciting trip away to the likes of SriLanka or the Philippines!
