Meet the Team

FY Camp is a small, independent, family-run business managed by sisters Sarah and Rachel. With a dedicated team of local, fabulous people and family members, the campsite has organically evolved on their family home and land, which their parents bought as a smallholding over 20 years ago. Matt, another key figure, built the first bender tent several years ago from locally coppiced hazel, now the beautiful Wren’s Nest. The warehouse, known as “the coolest warehouse in the East” by the Most Curious Wedding Fair, came later, adding a trendy touch to the venue.

Recognition and Sustainability

FY Camp has been featured in numerous publications, including The Guardian, The Independent, Wedding Ideas Magazine, Rock & Roll Bride, the EDP, Time Out London, The Sunday Telegraph, Rock My Wedding, and Coco Wedding Venues. The venue is celebrated for its commitment to sustainability and eco-friendly practices. FY Camp champions a no-single-use plastic policy and ethical bar practices, including sober weddings and celebrations.

Planning and Extras

FY Camp aims to make your wedding planning as smooth as possible. While the venue provides essential facilities, couples need to book a celebrant or registrar to perform the ceremony and handle legal duties.

Catering arrangements are also a key consideration. Other frequent extras include draping, chair or prop hire, photographers, videographers, DJs or bands, florists, and outdoor features or activities. FY Camp’s team is ready to assist you in sourcing and coordinating these additional services to bring your vision to life.

The Setting

The Cherry Barn is located on a 400-acre working farm within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The venue is set in the High Weald, only a seven-minute drive from the medieval town of Rye and a short stroll from the Norman church in Peasmarsh. The Cherry Barn, with its backdrop of orchards and farmland, is a stunning rural retreat for any wedding or event but is within easy reach of London.

The Vibe

The Cherry Barn is a beautiful, restored 17th-century barn.

The original traditional oak-framed barn has full-height glass doors and windows that overlook the orchard and give extensive views of the surrounding countryside. The Cherry Barn is a blank canvas where couples can make it their own.

They offer exclusive 48-hour hire periods and can comfortably seat up to 150 guests. The Cherry Barn is licensed for weddings, but for those wanting a religious ceremony, the Norman church of St Peter and St Paul in Peasmarsh is only a short stroll away. Their oak-framed gazebo means they can also offer outdoor ceremonies.

The Cherry Barn has drop-off points for those needing easy venue access. It also has accessible toilets, double doors, and same-level/no-stair spaces.

The Setting

Sitting on the hill above Bowness on Windermere, Lindeth Fell is handily placed and easy to reach —but it is utterly secluded and private. It feels a million miles from anywhere and is equally peaceful and quiet.

Located in the heart of the South Lake District, Lindeth is 30 minutes from J36 on the M6 via dual carriageway and then country A roads to the entrance. There is private, off-road, free parking.

It is 10 minutes by taxi from Windermere Station, which has four short scenic stops on the Oxenholme West Coast Mainline between London Euston and Manchester Airport.

Once at Lindeth Fell, it is easy to explore the spectacular Lake District National Park, which sits in the heart of the lakes above England’s largest lake, Windermere.

The village of Bowness on Windermere is a few minutes away on foot and by car – with its assortment of shops and cafes and Windermere Lake Cruises on the Glebe (including hire of private electric boats or rowing boats) for trips around the lake. An extended 20-minute walk to Bowness takes part of the lakeshore itself, leading to the shops and bars in Bowness—the primary bus services through the central lakes run from here, too.

There are nearby walks, meaning you don’t have to use the car to explore. The local fell, Ghyll Head, has sweeping views along Lake Windermere and the surrounding mountains.

The Vibe

The Edwardian Arts & Crafts House and beautifully mature contemporary gardens offer a relaxing and luxurious environment. Refurbished in 2024, the new and stylish interiors enhance the setting. As a 5-star Luxury B&B, it offers more than expected, with a bar and restaurant, plus all-day dining menus—with a lounge and library for guest use. The garden terraces come into their own in Summer, extending the spaces for outdoor living.

Lindeth is set back into woodland, opening out into swathes of garden terraces and lawns that gently cascade down the hill. All you see are lush gardens, glimpses of Lake Windermere, and out over the West shoreline to the Coniston mountain range.

The House & Grounds

Lindeth Fell has a luxurious ‘Secret Garden’ vibe. It is a dreamily romantic property. Built-in 1909 as a holiday home, it retains that sense of leisurely Edwardian relaxed elegance that embraces you on arrival. Even though it is on the outskirts of Bowness on Windermere, it is completely private and secluded, overlooked by no one and peacefully quiet. In turn, the beautiful views take glimpses of the tree-fringed lake and Claife Heights and over to the Coniston mountains. It is a small Country House of comfortable and relaxed proportions, with 7 acres of private gardens.

The house and garden are contemporary to each other and remain unspoilt; the Thomas Mawson-designed garden has had over 100 years to mature beautifully. Lushly planted terraces and almost tree-sized multicoloured rhododendrons launch Springtime in spectacular style – and the gardens continue to bloom for months. The terraces wrap around the ground floor and face the views – extending the interiors outdoors when sunny, creating more living space for drinks and dining.

Your Ceremony

There are four licensed ceremony spaces, two indoors and two outdoors. All are suitable for Exclusive Use ceremonies for up to 26 friends and family or Just-for-Two elopements.

Inside, the options are the Wedgewood blue lounge and stylish library on the ground floor and outdoors on the lawns or by the lily pond in the gardens.

Food & Drink

For your Wedding Day celebrations, there is a choice of menu and dining options, from Champagne and Canapés (or drinks of choice), a three-course sit-down Wedding Breakfast, informal barbeque, or evening menu. These can be served on the terraces (weather permitting), in the bar, or in the West-facing restaurant.

Accommodation

Currently, Lindeth Fell has 14 bedrooms, two of which are single occupancy. All bedrooms are ensuite, and while the ground floor is wheelchair accessible and suitable for guests with limited mobility, one large ground-floor bedroom is also accessible.

The Team

Think of Lindeth Fell as your dream home away from home, with a dedicated and experienced team on-site to help you create and deliver your perfect day. Between them, they bring a wealth of experience from other leading Lake District establishments, and you’ll be in very safe hands. If you are looking for an intimate and beautiful wedding venue that will work with you through your plans to deliver your perfect memorable day, Lindeth Fell is the venue for you.

The Setting

In a picture-perfect setting, within its own grounds and with views across Nidderdale, Grassfield Hall is a historic home lovingly restored by its owners. When they host your wedding, they want you to feel like it’s your home.

The Vibe

The historical hall’s interior is a mix of modern and traditional and needs little styling for your wedding, as the Hall speaks for itself. Although the house is grand and elegant, it has a homely feel, encouraging guests to relax and enjoy every precious moment.

What sets the Hall apart is the passion and love put into every wedding. They choose to host only a handful of intimate weddings every year, allowing the owner and her team to provide an on-the-day coordinator who takes care of every small detail. This ensures that every couple receives the care and attention they deserve, making them feel truly important.

The Setting

Discover the enchanting Fallow Meadow, nestled in a secluded valley of hay meadows, accessible only via a winding private track. The tipis, a hidden gem in this picturesque setting, are surrounded by woodland, offering couples an exclusive and private space to celebrate their special day with loved ones.

Fallow Meadow offers a dreamy countryside setting. It is located in the heart of Sussex yet within an hour of London and Brighton, with nearby rail and air travel links.

Nearby villages and market towns offer great accommodation options for you and your guests. The team are happy to provide contact details and recommendations.

The Vibe

When you reach Fallow Meadow, you’ll see how to create your dream wedding in a relaxed, flexible, personal space. By day the gently landscaped lawns and meadows give a space for guests to relax whilst enjoying the outdoor space, garden games and a variety of outdoor furniture. Different chill-out areas mean that a spirited game of croquet can be played on the lawn or an overdue catch-up with an old friend under the shade of the mini tipi. By night, the fairy and festoon lights softly illuminate the tipis, creating a magical place where the dance floor and bar can become a hub of celebration and fun.

When you choose Fallow Meadow, you gain access to its comprehensive facilities. The Three Giant Hat tipis, linked to create a spacious area, can accommodate up to 130 guests for a seated meal, dance floor, and bespoke sound system. Their signature Fallow Meadow bar adds a touch of elegance. Adjacent to the tipis is the open sided stretch tent, ideal for ceremonies. With their fully licensed wedding venue, you can exchange your vows in the beautiful outdoor surroundings.

The lawns, decking, and meadow areas are perfect for guests to enjoy the spectacular views and soak up the sun. A mini tipi creates a covered area for those outside.

The luxury event toilets, catering tent, and on-site management ensure your day runs smoothly. With ample on-site parking for your guests and suppliers, you have a totally self-contained space to hold your special day.

Couples can choose their own caterers and suppliers, and they are happy to recommend a list of outstanding providers to help along the way.

The Setting

Chiddingstone Castle is a beautiful historic country home set in 25 acres of informal grounds, including sweeping lawns, wild woodlands, a romantic courtyard rose garden, and breathtaking views of the Kent countryside.

Getting Ready

The Four Poster Room is available all day as your personal space on the first floor. The vintage four-poster bed makes a beautiful hanging rail and photography backdrop; there are comfy chairs to relax in and furniture for hair and make-up to set up. The recently refurbished bathroom, with a roll-top bath, completes the suite. You can invite hair and make-up professionals to help you get ready on-site and watch your guests arrive for the wedding from a secluded vantage point. The room is yours for the day, a place to keep your belongings and an invaluable space to freshen up or step away from the spotlight for a moment to yourselves.

Tailor Your Day

With the flexibility to suit all needs, the castle wedding coordinator teams up with couples to create a day as intimate, fun, glamorous, quirky or big and bold as you can imagine. They offer a no corkage charge policy and pride themselves on being open to ideas so you can tailor and personalise the venue. The grounds have seen everything from Ferris wheels and carousels to horse parades, ring-bearing dogs, mini golf, magic acts, fireworks and birds of prey! There are plenty of photogenic spots around the castle and on the grounds for a picture-perfect wedding, including the beautiful lake bridge, long meadow grass, woodland trails and, of course, the Castle itself. Whether you want a social media blackout or are ready to embrace a live drone stream, your photographer, videographer, and guests will be wowed by the stunning backdrops.

Arrive in Style

There are endless options for arriving at your ceremony in style. Some prefer to step out of the stunning South Door and simply gather their thoughts on the walk alongside the castle wall, while others treat themselves to a special car. This venue has even seen entrances with horses and helicopters! The driveway is suitable for any kind of wedding car, and the castle often hosts car events with classic cars and sports cars, so the route is well-tested.
