Welcome

Boutique and micro weddings

An exclusive-use house party in the Royal Forest of Dean, with a styled teepee, hot tubs and exotic animals roaming the gardens.

Boutique weddings and micro weddings are among the occasions Tan House Newland is set up for, alongside naming ceremonies, baby showers and special occasions of every kind. The Tan House Teepee is suited to naming ceremonies, and it stands among the gardens, where the resident animals roam. A wedding here is a small, private house party that stays together for the whole weekend.
