Celebrate in Nature
Create your special day embraced by nature
A 32 acre natural habitat on the edge of the New Forest. This unique space is available only briefly throughout the Summer for a limited number of bespoke weddings in nature.
Secret Garden combines a diverse landscape with clear spring fed lakes, an ancient wood, wild flower meadows and a hidden orchard, all within an exclusive estate. The land is remote with access to the New Forest national park but within easy reach of main towns such as Bournemouth, Salisbury and Ringwood.
Off-grid and pure, its lakes sparkle with natural spring waters. Once a quarry site, Secret Garden has been lovingly returned to nature over the last ten years by the owners under professional, ecology led management.
Every event here honours the earth; low-impact, nature-respecting, with sustainability woven into the heart of the event.

How we work
At Secret Garden, we make it effortless to craft your dream wedding amidst breathtaking, off-grid landscapes. Our process begins with selecting the ideal backdrop and vista for your day. Take your choice from our lush ancient woodland, the tranquil lakeside, or rolling meadows—each designed to immerse you and your guests in the beauty of the outdoors without sacrificing comfort. We don’t just offer the space; we provide a comprehensive network of trusted partners to handle every detail. From an experienced wedding planner who orchestrates seamless timelines to florists sourcing wild blooms, caterers specialising in farm-to-table feasts, photographers capturing candid moments in golden hour light, practical essentials like eco-friendly toilet hire and power generators and, if you and your guests don’t want to leave, we have a partner to provide beautifully made up glamping units on site. We connect you with vetted professionals tailored to your vision.
You take the reins: customise your package by choosing the contacts that fit your style, budget, and theme, whether it’s a bohemian elopement or a grand celebration. Our team guides you through initial consultations, site visits, and coordination, ensuring sustainability and minimal environmental impact. The result? A personalised, stress-free day where nature is the star, creating unforgettable memories.

"A life changing weekend in nature"
" A beautiful location, it's great for getting in touch with nature and bird watching. Today we were lucky enough to see a whole herd of deer, wild rabbits, swans and a heron too."
"My firm had its corporate event here. It's a hidden gem, lovely trails around the land, you see an abundance of wildlife and the lake is simply stunning. This is so tranquil, I highly recommend it."
"The beautiful surroundings of Secret Garden made for an amazing and memorable day, thank you."
