At Huntstile Farm we know the meaning of a relaxed and friendly atmosphere – it’s how we live. We are a different kind of venue as we organise your day around what you want (…not around what we would like you to do). In the summer months you can hold your wedding reception here in the farmhouse & garden marquee for up to 135 guests. We have straw bales, tables & benches available for seating and dining outside too. During autumn and winter you may hold your reception in the dining hall with crackling log fires, seating up to 50 guests

We have farmhouse accommodation for up to 25, camping for 15 and there are other places to stay within walking distance…

Read our guest testimonials and see below for more details…

Rustic Weddings

We can deliver your guests to church on a hay-bale ride in our lovely wedding tractor & trailer and then entertain you back at the farm with a barn dance in the evening or a ceilidh - or how about a Medieval Banquet with jugglers, stilt walkers & fire eaters – you name it and we can provide it at Huntstile!

Hand-Fastings at our stone circle

The Stone Circle was built  for Fran & Rachel’s Druid hand-fasting ceremony in 2005.
Made from ancient staddle stones, the circle lies on the edge of a wood upon a hilltop with breathtaking views across the county – we can recommend an excellent celebrant to perform the ceremony if required. Guests will be transported to and from the farm on a hay-bale ride in our tractor & trailer – great fun! Click here for more photos…
