Dobell-Hones Wedding
We hope you can join us in celebrating our marriage at Crockwell Farm on Saturday 12 August 2023!
Location and Travel
Crockwell Farm, Eydon, Daventry NN11 3QA Crockwell enjoys a secluded and tranquil location but this can make it hard to find. Google Maps works for us so we would recommend using this, alongside the Map and Directions below. Please be cautious of using satellite navigation as this can lead you down a farm track only passable by 4x4 cars. The venue is approximately 10 miles from Banbury, Daventry, Towcester and Silverstone. The nearest train station is Banbury Station and this is a 22 minute taxi ride away. There are two Premier Inns in Banbury which are a short walk away from the train station.
Gifts
We are not expecting gifts from anyone - we are incredibly grateful for all those who make the effort to celebrate this special day with us. However, we do know that some people would like to get us a gift so we would really appreciate financial contributions to help with building our new home or for some excursions on our honeymoon.
Parking and Taxis
There is plenty of space for parking at Crockwell Farm and you can leave your car overnight. We ask you collect this by 10am the following morning. We recommend booking any taxis before the wedding (carriages will be at midnight) however it isn't a problem if you want to book on the day - Crockwell can do this for you if you place a request at the bar.
Hotels and B&Bs
Our immediate family are invited to stay on site with us at Crockwell Farm. There are a number of B&Bs and hotels nearby to Crockwell Farm. You can find details of all these on Crockwell Farm’s website below. Some we recommend are: - Hellidon Lakes Hotel, Daventry, NN11 6GG (Book ASAP - has a lot of availability via booking.com - see below). - The Red Lion Inn, Hellidon, NN11 6LG - The Star Inn, Sulgrave, OX17 2SA - The Crown Inn, Weston, NN12 8PX - Fawsley Hall, Fawsley, NN11 3BA We recommend booking accommodation as soon as you can as we have found some hotels around the area are already getting booked up.
Camping
You can camp on the fields of Crockwell on the night of the wedding for £15 per pitch. All you need to do is let us know if you'd like to do this, call the venue on 01327 361 358 (we will also let them know) and bring your own tent! We have one spare tent if anyone needs it. And please be prepared for all types of weather - it may be August but we all know how unpredictable the weather can be. The toilets at the venue will also be available to use. Crockwell Farm is a working farm, so you may also be welcomed in the morning by the sounds of the farm’s local residents! You're also welcome to join us at Crockwell Farm for breakfast the following morning at an extra cost. Numbers are limited so please do let us know if you’d like this ASAP.
