Arrivals, not evacuations
With most guests staying over, the work is arrival and station runs rather than one midnight convoy.

Farnham & surrounding venues
Wedding taxis at Frensham Pond are a different job from most venues we cover. The hotel holds weddings in two rooms looking over the Great Pond and has 53 bedrooms against roughly 150 guests, so it sleeps most of its own party. That turns the day into arrivals and next-morning station runs rather than one midnight convoy, in and out along Bacon Lane across unlit heath.

Frensham Pond Hotel takes weddings in two rooms, the Garden Suite and the George Lloyd Suite, both looking out over Frensham Great Pond with lawns running down to the water. It is unusual among the venues we cover because it can sleep a large share of its own wedding party, which changes what the transport day looks like.
Bacon Lane off the A287 at Churt is the way in, a narrow lane down to the pond rather than a main road. The approach is unlit heathland after dark, which matters for guests arriving late or leaving at the end of the night. There is room on site for cars to wait, so we are not circling while you finish the speeches.
With 53 bedrooms against roughly 150 guests, this venue keeps more of its party on site overnight than most. That shifts the work from one big late-night evacuation towards arrival runs, station pickups and airport transfers for guests travelling in. Farnham is the nearest station at five miles, with Bentley six miles out.
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.
Down Bacon Lane, which leaves the A287 at Churt. It is a narrow rural lane rather than a main road, and the final stretch crosses unlit heathland, which matters for guests arriving late or leaving at the end of the night.
Fewer than at most venues around here. With 53 bedrooms against roughly 150 guests, a large share stays on site, so the demand shifts towards arrival runs, station pickups and airport transfers for people travelling in.
Yes, around 120 free spaces plus accessible bays. Note the National Trust pond car parks nearby are separate and charge, so tell the driver you mean the hotel.
Farnham at about five miles, or Bentley at around six. There is effectively no evening public transport into Churt, so arrivals and departures both need booking.
