Facilities
Blessing
There is a beautiful woodland blessing area under the boughs of a grand oak tree. There are benches for 120 guests (plus an additional 20 chairs).
Captains Wood Barn does not have a license for a Legal Registration but you are able to have a personalised ceremony or blessing.
Reception
You have full use of the large barn for your wedding breakfast and reception. The main barn area comfortably seats 130 for dinner (you can squeeze in more if needed). In the evening they can accommodate 200.
An additional marquee or tipi can be added. Speak to the team to discuss your options.
Into the evening, a bonfire can be provided for you and your guests to enjoy when the sun goes down. What a perfect way to end the evening!
Food and Drinks
This is a dry hire venue, so you can choose your own suppliers, including bar and catering. The team will be able to help with reputable and professional recommendations.
