THE FOREST
NATURE. UNIQUE. QUALITY.
The Entrance
Designed to impress from the very beginning of your Royle Forest journey, our handmade rustic swan gates guard the entrance to our 200 acre magical woodland.
These majestic gates, custom-crafted in our very own workshop and hand-burnt with our unique logo, hang between two grand stone pillars. Entering the enchanted estate is an experience that only becomes more magical as you are led through the gates, down the forest drive, and toward the clearing where the real magic happens.
The Ruined Archway
As if entering the property through the swan gates was not mythical enough, the next step on your Royle Forest journey is through a time worn ruined archway.
You’ll be taken back through the ages as you walk through the antique stone architecture. Our dignified archway grants passage to the charming forest walkway, setting off your spellbinding stroll through nature.
The Forest Walkway
After stepping through the ruined archway, you’ll be led through the enchanting trees down The Forest Walkway. As you wind your way along the path, you’ll find yourself totally engulfed in nature.
Our forest walkway becomes nature’s corridor, moving you closer and closer to the extraordinary tipi clearing. When the sun goes down, the walkway transforms into an otherworldly aisle illuminating your path with festoon lighting.

The Ceremony Area
In the heart of the forest lies The Ceremony Area. Tucked deep in nature’s embrace, the ceremony area is home to an idyllic stone chapel. This picturesque structure allows you to seal your union in any weather and becomes the perfect backdrop for your friends and family to watch as you exchange vows with your beloved.
In addition to the stone chapel, the ceremony area also offers a canvas-covered quarter complete with 250 year old church pews to accommodate all ceremony styles and desires.
