Working with your venue
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
Before you choose a spot
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- Shelter for crew
- Flat ground at the unit base
- A safe distance from kit
For somewhere as remote as Clatterford, early notice helps us plan the trip.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

How it works

- Production sends us the location and call times.
- We confirm access and send a price.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
- We carve fast on the lunch call.
- We clear our spot.
