The woods make
you happy.
Fact.
The Glade
At the Glade we still remain vigilant about covid health and safety, keeping the venue covid-secure for our guests and employees. We continue to implement a Hygiene and Safety Protocol to ensure a safe environment for your events.
The Glade is a woodland community venue in the awe-inspiring North Woods. Our social forestry aim is to innovate the type of activities that happen in woods and bring a wide range of people to form a renewed relationship with trees.
We help arrange bespoke events for a variety of occasions from nature connection sessions, eco-therapies, bush craft workshops, private gatherings, to week-long retreat camps and many more nurturing woodland activities. We’re very open minded and game for a challenge and welcome creative innovative thoughts. Bring your idea to us, we’d be happy to speak with you.
We also put on our own bedazzling community events, run our own woodland wellbeing services as part of our Woods for Wellness project, so keep your eyes peeling on our What’s On page and ears open on our social media accounts.

The Nest
Oh, the Nest what can we say. It’s grand and compactable, and ever so cute. It can probably seat up to 50 people, that’s how big it is! This large indoor hut, with a handsome wood burner may we add, can be used for whatever your choosing. Mmmm let’s see, giving a talk, holding a retreat, singing workshop (the acoustics are great), who needs a treatment room, or just some intimate space?
Canopy & Stage
This space, well it’s whatever you want it to be! Fancy having a woodland workshop, presentation, theatre performance, live music, an outdoor yoga session, no a dance area or a home movie screening (we do have all the equipment and can seat about 120). Featuring a large covered stage and wooden benches covered by four parachutes. We will create and fashion this area to suit your needs as best we can.
With four parachutes up this will keep the droplets at bay yet the breeze passing through.
Woodland Bar and Tree Table
This nifty pop up bar/food shack is a great place to store and serve your drinks, whether you’d like it stocked and served by us or to use for yourselves (we can help with hot/cold drinks packages should you need, we’ll even do all the washing up!). In front we present the grand Tree Table (pictured) which makes a perfect chatting and nibbles spot.
Fire Circle
Why not cosy up around the large outdoor fire, whip out an accordion or just listen to the bird song surrounding you. With a mix of wooden stumps and tree benches and a parachute covering, it’s a warming woodland circle space.
Compost Loos
Our three bush loos (including one disabled toilet) are simple, using rain water for the sink and we compost all the stink.
NB: Picture of old toilet, new ones coming.
