We're at Colehaye's Park from Monday 28th July until Monday 4th August so if you want to extend the party you're welcome to join us any other time you like (just tell us so we can make sure there's a room ready)
Who?
The good news is, if you have an invitation written to you then you're invited! The bad news is, if your partner/parents/neighbours/milkman isn't mentioned on the invitation then they are not. The venue is limited on numbers and we hope you understand that we are really looking forward to spending our wedding day(s) with the people we know and love.
For these same reasons we are not inviting children (in addition to being at the request of many parents...!).
Where?
Colehayes Park is a beautiful Grade II Listed, granite-built, Georgian mansion located on the edge of the stunning Dartmoor National Park and close to Bovey Tracey. The house sits within 20 acres of private woodland as well as ponds, marshland, streams and cascading waterfalls giving plenty of nature trails to explore.
The house has everything we need including on site bedrooms, kitchens, dining rooms, games room (with pool table tennis and table football) and an open water swimming lake.
You can see more about the venue and surrounding areas at www.colehayespark.co.uk
Colehayes Park, Haytor Road, Newton Abbott, Devon, TQ139LD
The venue is easily accessible by car with plenty of parking - click here for full map and directions. The closest train station is Newton Abbot which is around a 2.5-3.5 hour journey from London Paddington (and then a 20 minute car/taxi). Closest airport is Exeter.
Accommodation
One of the main reasons we chose Colehayes Park is that it has lots of room for people to stay in the venue with us, which we would love you to do!
There are lots of different types and sizes of rooms which means some people will need to share with others but, where this is needed, we'll match people with friends and check with you all before confirming the plan. There are 9 bathrooms (including 16 toilets) in the main house with more in the additional cottages.
There is a cost of £150 per person including accommodation as well as all food and drinks for your whole stay (so the longer you stay the better the deal!) and your bed is in staggering distance from the dancefloor!
To secure your room you can transfer to the following account: Amelia Hall / 43053180 / 20-92-54
Of course, if you would prefer to stay off site then you are more than welcome to, just let us know when you RSVP.
Food & Drink
We are providing the basics for everything you should need across the whole stay including drinks (alcoholic & non-alcoholic), breakfast lunch and dinner. However, if there are any specifics you want to bring with you please feel free to.
There are also a number of shops, supermarkets, cafes and pubs within a short drive if you need anything whilst you're here.
If you have any dietary requirements then please let us know when you RSVP.
What to bring with you
- A towel (all bedding etc is provided but not towels so please bring one with you)
- Any specific food & drink you may want
- Clothes you can do activities in
- Swimwear (if you want to take a dip in the lake)
- All the fun
Gifts
Please do not feel obliged to buy us a gift, making the trip down to be with us is more than enough!
If you would still like to give something, a contribution towards our honeymoon would be greatly appreciated as we'd much prefer cocktails on the beach than a new air frier.
Questions
If you have any questions still then please just ask us!
