Treat a friend - free main course (breakfast or lunch) in the Wilding Kitchen

The Gathering

Our beautiful newly renovated Barn, right next to the Wilding Kitchen makes a wonderful meeting space.

Nestled in a peaceful, inspiring setting near the Wilding Kitchen, our barn is the perfect space for workshops, writing retreats, exhibitions, informal meetings, and creative gatherings. With its open, flexible layout and rustic charm, it provides a calm, focused environment where ideas can flourish.

You are welcome to make use of the projector and TV screen, wood-burning stove and tea and coffee facilities.

For all bookings, we offer our delicious grazing platter menu, available exclusively as part of your Gathering hire. Please note we do not permit self-catering.

The barn is available for full-day hire only, providing a dedicated space for your event. The space can accommodate groups of 20 seated at our conference table with lunch, or up to 40 people theatre-style with a buffet lunch.

Our 12+ Policy

Knepp Wildland Safaris, our gardens and campsite are all about the quiet and patient observation of nature.

Some of the species we are likely to encounter are shy or can be frightened by loud noises or sudden movements. Our campsite with open-air fire-pits, wood-burning stoves and an on-site pond is unsuitable for small children.

For this reason, our safaris, garden visits, holiday cottages and campsite are suitable only for children of 12 and over.
