For those milestone occasions, our chefs are also available for private hire, cooking right in your kitchen.

DINING EXPERIENCES

Food is so important to the Wilderness Reserve experience, whether it’s us ensuring the kitchen is fully equipped for our foodie guests to the pride we take in the dishes we serve at events, this is why we have created a selection of dining experiences sure to excite.

Our Bonfire Experience is one of our favourite ways to kick off a weekend at Wilderness Reserve. A short walk from either estate, it’s the sort of fun which sends you right back to childhood. Grab a pair of wellies from the boot room and wrap up as you make your way into a clearing. Enjoy either a warming mulled wine or glass of Pimm's as marshmallows are speared onto hand-carved sticks with fervour. Sausage rolls and more warming drinks to follow as you pick a spot on the bales of hay, ready to watch the sun and the embers go down.

The team are so excited to make your weekend vision come to life - if you have any dining experience requests or just want to know more, enquire below.
