Folly Farm is a
sustainable venue

Folly Farm is a sustainable venue housed in a set of carefully restored farm buildings with eco features including biomass heating and solar energy. Wastewater is broken down naturally by a reed bed sewage system and we harvest rainwater from the rooftops.

Every year, Folly Farm welcomes more than 4,500 wedding guests and hosts more than 120 conferences. With countless 5-star reviews, our guests value the tranquil surroundings, and the flexible options that make our weddings and events so memorable. We were awarded Best Wedding Venue by wedding planning website Hitched in 2025.

Local ingredients
all year round

Our in-house caterers are highly experienced and use local ingredients all year round. We buy eggs, meat, milk and cheese from nearby farms, and vegetables often come straight from our kitchen garden to your table. Our food hygiene rating of 5 reflects the high standard of food safety management.
