Beautifully perched above the water’s edge, our lakeside ceremony space is surrounded by the untouched beauty of Dorset woodland and overlooking the incredible Morden Lake. With a breathtaking backdrop of a swan-filled lake and towering forest, it is a truly magical setting to say your vows in nature.

Tucked beneath the canopy of ancient trees, our forest celebration space is housed within a custom treble tipi structure, adorned with soft, magical lighting and a warm, natural charm. Complete with a cocktail bar, dance-floor space and including all furniture you need for up to 120 guests, it offers a relaxed yet elegant setting to celebrate and party into the night.

There are a wide range of accommodation options available, including an on-site 3-bedroom cottage coming late 2026, or you can work with one of our preferred suppliers to install your own glamping area with bell tents and shower trailers available to hire. Just down the road, Almer Manor offers 11 bedrooms of luxury accommodation.
