What our visitors say

  • …thanks for contributing to a great programme last week which went really, really well. The students really got a very thorough experience of all the great stuff that is going on round here, as well as having a pretty profound transformational personal experience.

The Quarry

Hidden among the woods yet only a short walk away from Sharpham House, our quarry is a popular outside venue. Many different groups find it the perfect spot to host workshops, training days and private parties.

Group in quarry

While it is close to parking and toilet facilities, its location in the woods makes this unusual space feel very private and secluded.

We also have a communal campfire area, great for relaxing by and reconnecting with your group. To make your event even more special, ask us about using Yrrauq, the fire troll (our clay pizza oven).

The level nature of the quarry also makes it suitable for small groups who wish to camp overnight. Other outdoor spaces available to hire at Sharpham include Point Field, Cedar Woods and the house lawns.

We are always happy to arrange viewings at a mutually convenient time so please contact us.
