Where timeless charm meets contemporary versatility
Bright, spacious and full of countryside charm, the Farmhouse offers a relaxed yet well-equipped setting for smaller team sessions. The kitchen comes with everything you need – including a smart TV screen and space for a flip chart – and the large farmhouse table comfortably seats up to 12 for collaborative work or shared meals. Head to the generous living room or the cosy snug for breakout discussions or quieter moments and make the most of the beautiful gardens – perfect for fresh-air thinking or informal team activities.
Seated capacity (kitchen table): up to 12
Our stunning 400-year-old oak-beamed barn is full of charm and character – ideal for small to mid-size conferences, workshops, or team-building sessions. The adjoining Hen House, with its comfy seating and fully licensed bar, is perfect for welcome drinks, breakout sessions, or more focused round-table meetings. Just outside, a spacious courtyard offers room for outdoor working or a well-earned break in the fresh country air.
Capacity: Depends on the type of event, please get in touch to discuss
Tucked just off the Hampshire Threshing Barn, the Hen House is a cosy little hideaway that’s perfect for smaller gatherings. It can seat up to 18 people around the table for a meeting, or serve as a charming breakout space for drinks and coffee when using the Hampshire Threshing Barn (which seats up to 60). With comfy seating and its own fully licensed bar, it’s ideal for welcome drinks, informal catch-ups or a quiet moment to recharge.
Seated capacity: up to 18
The Dutch Barn offers the ultimate indoor-outdoor experience – open to the elements yet thoughtfully covered to keep the English weather at bay. Surrounded by countryside views, it’s an inspiring space for al fresco dining, team socials or relaxed networking. At the heart of the barn is our outdoor kitchen, complete with a bespoke grill, wood-fired pizza oven and Kamado Joe BBQ – perfect for open-air cooking, laid-back feasting, and a touch of culinary theatre.
Seated capacity: up to 140 (usually used as a standing space)
A bright, open-plan space filled with natural light, the Cow Shed is a versatile venue ideal for larger conferences, keynote sessions, product launches, and dinner celebrations. With full air conditioning, huge windows and doors, and a relaxed lounge-style seating area alongside a fully licensed bar, it offers both functionality and comfort. Step outside onto the sun-drenched terrace overlooking the kitchen garden – perfect for breaks, networking or al fresco moments between sessions.
Seated capacity: up to 140 guests
Our beautiful, landscaped gardens and surrounding grounds offer space to breathe, reset and reconnect. Ideal for outdoor meetings, wellness walks or breakout activities, the central lawn and kitchen garden sit at the heart of the site, with rolling fields and woodland stretching out beyond. The sweeping drive and open views also make it a favourite for photoshoots and product showcases – with Lamborghini recently taking a spin across the fields for a dramatic shoot moment. However you use them, the gardens bring fresh air and fresh thinking to every event.
Seated capacity: unlimited
Once an old grain store, Barn House has been beautifully transformed into a spacious six-bedroom retreat overlooking the manicured gardens and Hampshire Threshing Barn.

With plenty of room to think, create and connect, it’s a versatile space designed to inspire.
Seated capacity: up to 16
Tucked in the heart of Silchester Farm, The Drift is home to 9 luxurious ‘Pyggies’ – beautifully crafted, people-sized pig arcs designed for a peaceful, stylish stay. Each one is thoughtfully fitted with a comfortable king-size bed, a spacious en-suite with a rainfall shower, a kitchenette, TV, and a cosy seating area, all wrapped up in warm, laid-back interiors that invite you to slow down and unwind. Step outside to soak up views of the farm, enjoy the tranquil atmosphere, or use the space creatively – the Pyggies have become a favourite backdrop for podcast recording, fashion shoots, and relaxed lifestyle content.
