People we just love to work with
The Granary, West Deeping is one of the newest waterside venues in south Lincolnshire available for wedding reception hire.
The owners, Graham and Glenn only hold a limited number of weddings each year in 12 acres of gardens beside the millpond, rivers and streams that were once part of the Molecey Mill estate.
Having a local wedding which you can design and plan in an amazing country setting is a rather special opportunity for any couple.
As part of the wedding package the Granary comfortably accommodates the bride and her special bridesmaids. Sleeping 14 it gives plenty of scope for the night before the wedding and the evening of the big day. The bridal couple will have a romantic start to their married life staying in our self contained converted former Duck House.
Outside, two unique islands and the main lawns of the house provide the setting for your special day.
Swan island is the ideal location for your drinks or canapé reception as guests arrive at the Granary they cross zig zag bridge and begin to explore the wonderfully landscaped grounds.
Swan island is also the perfect place for your guests to camp. An idyllic willow fringed private island hosts your friends who wish to get away from it all for a night or two whilst helping you celebrate. Our resident swans will be gliding past when they wake.
Willow lawn is much closer to the main house provides a more formal area for a traditional style marquee or for a games and activities area if you want to keep guests entertained with croquet or other party games.
College Farm is a beautiful medieval house situated in the village of Thompson three miles from the market town of Watton. It was built by Katharine’s ancestors in 1349 as a College of Priests to serve St Martin’s Church and the villagers of Thompson. The college was dissolved by Henry VIII in 1541 when it then became a private house.
College Farm sits in 15 acres of lawns and woodland on the edge of the village and is the perfect secluded venue for your wedding reception or private party. B&B accommodation is also available in newly refurbished en suite rooms.
The Jacobean panelled room is licensed for weddings and civil partnerships and is also available for parties up to 20 people. Traditional cream teas are served in the garden (weather permitting) or by the fire in the panelled dining room if it’s too cold to sit outside. All food served at College Farm is organic and home-made or locally sourced. There is plenty of car parking in an adjacent field.
We have a field available for camping and there is also plenty of parking in another field.
Katherine hold’s a few weddings a year, making sure that College Farm is a special place to get married.
Rare breed animals are kept at College Farm – chickens for eggs, sheep for breeding & meat, and alpacas & llamas for keeping the foxes away from the chickens and for wonderful photo opportunities, particularly with Brian the Alpaca!
