Midnight clearance
Hire ends at midnight, so departures concentrate rather than trickle. Staged cars solve it.

Farnham & surrounding venues
Orbit Taxis runs the wedding cars and guest shuttles at Bury Court Barn, a Grade II listed seventeenth-century barn on a 464-acre estate that was once a demesne farm of the Bishops of Winchester. It takes 160 for the wedding breakfast and 200 for the reception, and hire ends at midnight, so we stage taxis for one concentrated departure and route drivers in on GU10 5LY.

This venue
Bury Court Barn is a rural barn setting, and our drivers already know the turning off the main road.
Hire ends at midnight, so departures concentrate rather than trickle. Staged cars solve it.
Use GU10 5LY in a sat nav. The address postcode routes drivers in the wrong way.
Fifteen rooms on site against 200 guests means most of the party sleeps in Farnham.

The barn was converted with its old oak beams kept alongside modern facilities, and the estate around it is genuinely working farmland rather than landscaped grounds. Its unusual feature is the courtyard garden designed by the Dutch designer Piet Oudolf in 1997, his first British commission, with clipped box and yew bays and two formal stone ponds.
Off the A31 at Bentley, then up small winding country lanes. The venue is clear that only the GU10 5LY postcode brings you in on the correct approach, so the address postcode is worth ignoring for navigation. Several of the bedrooms are in the converted Oast House, with the rest in courtyard pods.
Fifteen rooms against a 200-guest reception means the bulk of the party is staying in Farnham, five to ten minutes away, and coming back down unlit lanes at midnight. Bentley station is closer but has no rank. Booking the returns in advance turns a scramble into a queue that moves.
The cars
Luggage is where most airport bookings go wrong. These are the real limits, not the optimistic ones.
The standard car for one to four people. Two checked-in bags in the boot plus two items of hand luggage.
Six seats with room for two large suitcases in the back plus four items of hand luggage.
Seven seats filled, with five large suitcases in the boot plus six items of hand luggage.
Questions
What couples and planners usually ask.
GU10 5LY, not the address postcode. The venue itself advises this, because GU10 5LZ can route you in on the wrong approach through the lanes. It is the single most useful thing to tell a driver about Bury Court.
Venue hire runs to midnight, which concentrates everything into a short window. Tell us the numbers in advance and we stage cars through the last half hour rather than leaving 150 people waiting in a courtyard.
About five to seven minutes by car, but be aware there is no taxi rank there, so arriving guests need a booking rather than a hopeful look outside. Farnham town centre is five to ten minutes away.
Yes, the estate has parking for around 100 cars, so waiting is not a problem even on a full wedding.
