Welcome
Crockwell provides the perfect venue for people looking for an unusual wedding reception, a corporate event, conference or bed and breakfast accommodation.
Located in picturesque Northamptonshire surroundings, the location is perfect for country weddings. Alternatively, we are a superb conference venue for corporate team-building events and meetings.
Bay & Hermione Harper offer a unique combination of celebration and conference facilities, together with individually furnished accommodation on their working family farm. If you are looking for a flexible venue and relaxed environment for business or pleasure, then look no further.
  Our B&B offers a more personal approach than a hotel, and we pride ourselves on attention to detail, home-cooked food and the individuality of the surroundings. We feel that this really differentiates us from the competition, borne out by the fact that our clients keep coming back.

Weddings & Celebrations
Wedding venue Crockwell is the perfect venue for an idyllic wedding reception. If you are looking for a slightly unusual wedding, or a country wedding, we will make sure you have the wedding reception you dream of.
The original 18th Century oak beamed hall provides a superb reception area for weddings and parties. Guests arrive to drinks served in the hall, on the terrace or in the gardens.
Crockwell is exclusively yours for the day so you are welcome to enjoy the beautiful Northamptonshire surroundings in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.
Guests are seated in our permanent marquee, which is attached to the hall and used all year round. It is sited within the farm barns, so has more protection from the elements than an outside marquee - and of course it is fully heated throughout. The marquee seats up to 170 people and also combines a dedicated bar area. The front wall of the marquee has enormous windows either side of the double doors giving access to a great undercover barbecue area and the fantastic view - perfect for that country wedding.
   Unusual wedding venue We're a particular favourite with people searching for an unusual wedding venue, due to the lovely country surroundings. We pride ourselves on our personal service and attention to detail together with the relaxed ambience you will experience at Crockwell. If you are looking for a country wedding venue in the Northamptonshire / Oxfordshire area, please contact us for details.
Other events & parties If you are planning any kind of celebration - whether a formal dinner for 20 guests, or a bash with a barbecue and band - Crockwell is an ideal and flexible party venue.

Out & About
If you are the energetic sort, or wish to entertain your guests, then you need not look far for the ideal venue. Crockwell's well-stocked lakes offer great coarse fishing, with trout fishing also available nearby. We have our own stabling - and cross-country schooling facilities, golf, clay-pigeon shooting and motor sports are all easily accessible. There are also wonderful walks and bridleways from the door.
B & B near Silverstone Crockwell is located near Silverstone Circuit. Silverstone is most famous for its Grand Prix racing, and can make for a great day out. Why not use our bed and breakfast as a base for race meetings or the many other activities held there throughout the year?
We also have the facility for helicopter landing and take-off, which can be especially useful over the busy Grand Prix period.
  Northamptonshire B & B The countryside in this part of Northamptonshire is beautiful and remains undiscovered, making Crockwell great for a holiday or short break. We pride ourselves on providing a superb bed and breakfast service; and B & B at Crockwell is defined by our attention to detail, the quality of cooking and the idyllic location.
After all this activity you will probably have built up a thirst and an appetite. The Royal Oak in Eydon (owned by us, and run by Justin and Bronwyn LeFevre) has an excellent reputation for food and hospitality, and people travel for miles around to enjoy the unique surroundings of the 17th Century ironstone inn.
