Four joined Giant Hat Tipis (400 m2) set upon a sturdy wooden floor with moveable panoramic window (2.1m tall). The moveable windows can be fully enclosed during wet weather or open during warm summer days. You can be rest assured that our tipi venue means you can plan and celebrate stress free.

Our striking circular bar is set up to facilitate any large event, with fridges, a sink, shelving for glassware, and ample space for preparing drinks.

Unlinke most outdoor venue which use marquees or catering tents, we have designed a wooden purpose-built kitchen area joined to the tipis so catering partners can deliver the best food and service. Caterers have access to work surfaces, a sink, walk-in fridge and freezer. They can also cook outdoors under our green gazebo made from recycled materials.

We also have a built-in cloak room so your guests can put their belongings away and keep the venue tidy.

Our luxury Shepard Hut Restrooms are strategically connected to the tipi. They have been built in-house and utilise reclaimed and upcycled materials. They boast rustic high-end amenities and include 3 women’s cubicles, 1 mens cubical, 2 urinals, and 1 disabled and inclusive loo.

This includes waste management, cleaning, power mains (backed by the on-site watermill), and water which is plumped-in throughout the site. Having built in utilities ensures a reliable source for your events and eliminates problems that come with water tanks and generators.

We have a standard AV set-up which includes an indoor PA system in the stage area for DJs/Bands and a microphone and speaker set-up in the dining area for speeches. Our AV partner (AV Events) are familiar with the venue set up and can suggest packages to upgrade the AV based on your budget and requirements.

Our furniture includes large reclaimed dining tables and comfy cross-back chairs, high-end bohemian style lounge furniture, bar stools and barrels and additional couples seating and soft furnishings.

We have on-site furniture storage which gives you flexibility on furniture set-up the day before and the day of your event.

Sustainability is at the core of our venue. As part of our commitment, we provide an Event Carbon Footprint Report for every event, using Trace by Isla. This report measures the environmental impact of the event and is shared with you after the event.

By measuring carbon emissions for every event, we aim to identify opportunities for improvement and contribute to global efforts to halve emissions by 2030, limiting global warming.
