Do you take group bookings?

This blog post introduces you to a video that I shot to answer the common question of “Do you take group bookings?”. It’s part of our series of ‘You Ask, We Answer’ videos and blogs. They cover loads of our FAQ’s, or Frequently Asked Questions, but with a (we hope) really helpful deeper dive.

At Woodfarm Barns & Barges, we understand that planning the perfect getaway involves many questions and uncertainties. To help you navigate through these and to ensure you have the best experience possible, we’ve launched our ‘You Ask, We Answer’ initiative. This approach isn’t just about promoting our Barns, Cottages and Barges; it’s about providing valuable information, solutions, and peace of mind to our prospective guests.

Anyway, this is the video, and the transcript is below it if you wish to go back over anything.

Group Bookings at Woodfarm: What You Need to Know

Hello, it’s Carl, and today I’m addressing a common question about group bookings at Woodfarm. We often get asked whether we accept group bookings, so let me provide some clarity on this topic.

Our Approach to Group Bookings

At Woodfarm, we are renowned for our peace, quiet, and relaxation. Our properties, which include Barns and Cottages, are predominantly geared towards couples seeking a tranquil retreat. However, if you’re interested in booking all of our Barns and Cottages for a group, we are open to discussing it.

What We Don’t Accommodate

We want to maintain the serene atmosphere that our guests love. Therefore, we do not accommodate multiple groups of friends who plan to use the hot tubs for pool parties or similar activities. We aim to provide a peaceful environment, so we ask that you be mindful of other guests during your stay.

What We Do Accommodate

If your group is looking for a peaceful getaway where you can enjoy dog walks, pub lunches, and relax in the evening without creating a lively atmosphere, then Woodfarm could be the perfect fit. As long as you’re comfortable with and appreciate the calm ambiance we’ve cultivated, we’d be happy to discuss your booking.

Get in Touch

If you’re interested in booking Woodfarm for a group and believe it aligns with the peaceful experience we offer, please get in touch with me to discuss the details.


I hope this video helps clarify our policy on group bookings. If you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Also, be sure to subscribe to our YouTube Channel by clicking on our logo in the top right-hand corner when it appears.
