Our story

A working farm, reimagined for gatherings

For more than a century, the barn at Willow Lane stored the harvest for the farm around it. When the farm closed, the buildings were carefully restored, keeping the original oak frame, the brick walls of the kitchen garden and the old willows along the stream.

Today The Willow is a place for people to come together: couples and their families, teams on an away day, friends marking a milestone. We keep things simple and personal, with one event at a time and a team that knows every corner of the estate.
