This venue is absolutely stunning, the photos do not do it justice. The woods are a perfect place for any event, they’re big enough to feel like you’re in the wild and can explore and small enough that you can’t lose anyone! You immediately feel at peace when you arrive, it’s either in the air or in the water but I can assure you that you’ll have the best time in the woods!
This isn’t just a venue though, Lindsay and Charlie were absolutely phenomenal the entire time, not only did they help set up, make the place look amazing and build new benches the day before the ceremony, but they made us feel at home which was so important to us, they even helped us find our runaway dog! We will be forever grateful for them having faith in us to host our wedding festival, in all of its craziness.

The Woods at Oakley was the perfect location to host our outdoor wedding. We are nature lovers and really struggled to find a magical setting that would fully embrace the magic and beauty of the countryside, until we found the Woods at Oakley. From the breathtaking bluebells to the oak arbour, the campfire to the little fairy doors on trees, everything about the woods was perfect and you could see the love and care for its conservation from the wonderful owners Lindsay and Charlie. As part of our wedding, we were also able to plant our own tree to add a personal touch, so that we can visit the woods in the future and check in on our little oak tree. We are just so sad that the day has been and gone so quickly, we absolutely loved it, and it will always be our special day!

What an incredible place and incredible owners. We could truly make our wedding our own with how flexible and understanding Lindsay and Charlie were. They made our day so fun and got fully stuck in with helping us get set up. They were so friendly, fun and joyful to us and our family and friends. We could not have asked for a more beautiful venue and beautiful people to help us achieve our wedding dreams. Thank you so, so, much!

We visited so many venues looking for our perfect woodland location. We felt we were just on a conveyer belt of weddings and a bit of an afterthought with all the venues until we found The Woods At Oakley. Such a beautiful location. Lyndsay and Charlie are brilliant, and they make you feel like your special day is their first wedding, with their enthusiasm and excitement. Cannot recommend enough.

Our wedding at the Woods at Oakley was simply magical. The venue was beautiful with so many detailed touches. Lindsay and Charlie were so kind and friendly, answering all our questions and helping us through the whole experience. They did so many things for us that we hadn’t even asked for that made the day even more special. We had the perfect wedding here and can’t wait to return to the accommodation on our anniversary!

Our wedding was made that little bit more magical because of Lindsay and Charlie, sharing in their little pocket of nature at The Woods at Oakley. Our day was better than we imagined – laughing, crying and dancing with our friends and family under the trees. We were able to transform the woods into a space that reflected us as a couple; it felt so personal. Lindsay and Charlie helped make that happen. We’ve never met more lovely and accommodating people. We didn’t want for anything, and we will be eternally grateful. If you love nature and maybe a little bit of a book nerd (like me) this is the place for you.

Feeling the love and warmth, we booked our wedding with the Woods at Oakley, a family run business with amazing meaning and values. We could see our dream day in the woods, with nature around us and our loved ones blending in. Lindsay and Charlie were more than welcoming, open and honest. They helped create a magical day and were more than accommodating with our needs and requirements, making the day less stressful. With honest conversations and an open approach, the event was arranged and organised with the most stress reduction possible. The Nissen Hut was such a great addition to the package as a getting ready room, as well as 5 luxury bell tents. We had a magical day in the woods, and an event to forever remember. We will also send our love and wishes to Lindsay and Charlie and will always be open for a catch up or glass of wine. Thank you for being great hosts and allowing such a great event.

We had dreamt of the ideal place to get married; it was in a woodland, under luscious trees, surrounded by nature and loved ones. When we found out about the Woods at Oakley we couldn’t believe we had found a place so similar to what we had only dreamt of. Having our wedding there exceeded the dream and the expectations. The place is not only beautiful, but it has incredible energy – everyone there went out of their way to make our day very special. Lindsay and the team made everything easy for us and incredibly beautiful for us and for our family. We can’t thank them enough – not only for helping us have our dream wedding but actually exceeding it. Thank you very much for everything.

After a long and fruitless search, we finally found the woodland setting we were looking for with The Woods at Oakley. Lindsay and Charlie were extremely helpful and welcoming all the way through and came through on every promise they made. It’s an absolutely beautiful venue that we would recommend to anyone looking for a woodland wedding.

The Woods at Oakley is a magical location in its own right and a beautiful wedding venue. My husband Robin and I had our ceremony and reception here in June 2024, and we highly recommend choosing this place for your wedding. It is a stunning natural forest with lovely additions for a ceremony and reception.
Lindsay and Charlie are incredible people who we’ve loved getting to know, and they helped us whenever we needed it. Their dogs, cats, donkeys, sheep, horse, and mini horse are all adorable and so fun to hang out with. The venue was more than sizable enough for our small 22-person wedding.
