About Swallows Oast

The Oast...

Originally built in the 1830's, Swallows Oast is situated at Gibbs Reed Farm, East Sussex and has been well known as a banqueting hall since 1995.

Your ceremony will be held in the main hall, this area seats 100 guests with standing space in the gallery. There are many options of room layout for you to choose from along with your choice of music.

Swallows Oast has ample room to comfortably seat 100 guests downstairs and 30 upstairs for a meal prepared by our resident chef Russell Webb of Capers Catering. Russell will create a menu to suit your personal taste.

After the ceremony we will lay out all the tables and chairs leaving you plenty of room for the reception of your choice, using your own decorations and centre pieces.

Our premises holds a full licence until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays when you dance to live or recorded music.

Swallows trail offers a great opportunity for your photographer and a chance to enjoy the stunning rural surroundings.

Swallows Pavilion holds a full licence to perform a civil ceremony for those looking for an outside wedding.

Another popular catering option throughout the summer months is a barbecue or spit roast, these can either be served as a main course or a buffet style evening feature.

 

Winter Wedding

Summer season all booked up? Why not try a wedding during the winter months! as from 2018 Swallows Oast is proud to announce that it will be now hosting Winter Weddings.

In the evening chairs and tables are moved into the marquee so that guests can sit and enjoy a glass of wine away from the evening entertainment.

All of our marquees come fully equipped with flooring, champagne lining, chandelier lighting and orangery windows. Other accessory options are available on request.

On a sunny day the sides can be opened allowing a cool breeze on a perfect day.
