No matter the occasion, whether a celebration, get together or just a night out, a Medieval night at the Priests House is a night to behold.

Organise a group and the House is yours for the evening.


Picture the scene as you arrive; flame lanterns greeting you up the orchard with period music wafting in the air, real log fires burning away and staff in period costume serving you wine or beer in goblets. Feast on a banquet of local produce, spiced and prepared the traditional way and dine off trenchers without forks.

Then test your medieval knowledge, the loser of which will be pelted with rotten tomatoes (sorry forget the last bit - tomatoes didn’t arrive into England until after the medieval era!) and perhaps partake in some old fashioned post dinner drunken games!

Kings, queens, dukes, duchesses, counts, countesses, princes, princesses, marquis, marquises, barons, baronesses and lords of lower estate, and other nobles are invited to a medieval banquet of some standing at the place known locally as
The Priests House

Riding your mare home in the dark is not recommended, as you may be mistaken for a poacher or be robbed at sword point! We recommend you stay at the Barden Bunk Barn next door which sleeps up to 24 and is an ideal stopover so you can really enjoy the night.


Medieval nights are for groups of between 20 and 30 persons.

Cost is £47.50 per person
Including all wine and beer for the evening.

The evenings are most authentic between September and April when it is dark outside and the log fires are burning away...
