PLEASE NOTE THAT MEADOW COTTAGE WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE TO RENT AFTER JULY 2024

We work closely with the event planners at Apton Hall to provide the best experience possible for anyone attending a wedding.

These FAQs should help you with most queries you might have.

What is your booking policy? 

Wedding bookings are made on a first come, first served basis. There is no minimum or maximum on the number of nights that you can book. 

Where is Meadow Cottage?

The cottage is within the grounds of the farm, about 300m from the venue.

How far ahead can we book?

We are currently taking bookings until the middle of June 2024. 

Can you reserve the date while we ask friends and family if they want Meadow Cottage?

We don't hold dates speculatively - to guarantee your stay you will need to pay the booking deposit.

How should we make the booking?

Please message us through the website and we will answer you promptly. All wedding bookings will be made through this website.

What are your check-in and check-out times?

Check-in time is 3pm and check-out time is 11am. These times can’t be altered as we are then unable to take bookings the day before or after your stay.

My wedding ceremony starts at 2pm so my guests won't be able to check in to the cottage in time...

Your guests can drop their bags off in the cottage from 1pm while it is being prepared. After the ceremony they will be able to walk down to the cottage if they want to.

My bridal party is staying in Meadow Cottage the night before our wedding. What happens after check-out?

The check-out time of 11am will allow bridal parties to transfer straight to the wedding venue.

We want to book the cottage for two nights - is there a discount?

Yes, there is a small 5% discount on two night stays, assuming that the same people will be staying for both nights and, therefore, no cleaner is required.

We want to book for two nights - the bridal party on the first night and wedding guests on the second night. Is this OK and can we still get a discounted rate?

In this case we would ask that you make two separate bookings and we will arrange for the cottage to be fully cleaned between guests. Unfortunately, no discount will apply in this case.

How are the rooms allocated?

This is obviously up to you but, to simplify check-in, we recommend that the lead guest allocates rooms before arrival. Please look at the room layout and descriptions on this website.

Who will greet us upon arrival?

One of the family will be there to greet you upon your arrival.

Are towels provided?

Yes, clean towels will be laid out on the beds.

We have some other questions to ask about the cottage...

Most information about the cottage can be found here on the website. If you have any further specific questions, please feel free to ask.
