Testimonials
“The fairy birthday party which was arranged for my daughters 3rd birthday today was absolutely fantastic. there were so many wonderful and creative activities set up! such a friendly and inviting atmosphere with the fairy lights placed around, the various images of fairies , the fire and the great people. The children were free to explore and to be close to the chickens and to walk through he river. I am absolutely overjoyed by the turn out. made extra special by Sapphires absolute willingness to show up as the fairy godmother my daughter needed, with her brilliant wings and excitable passion, and I mustn’t forget to mention the bespoke story written just for Delilah-Anwen! What a day to remember. Thank you so much both. You and the fairies really helped to make the day extra special.”
“I celebrated my daughter’s 2nd birthday at Dare Valley Forest School. The whole party was tailored around her and she had the most special and magical time because of this. All the activities were based around her and her favourite book ‘Where the Wild Things are’ and we were all dressed up as woodland creatures (adults and staff included) . We read the story around the fire with puppets, toasted marshmallows, hooked ducks in the river, made our own wild things out of clay, created woodland crowns and made potions, mud cakes and slime .She had the best time ever! Us adults did too! Cake, sausages and coffee around the fire is a must! I can’t recommend this place enough! You can do as little or as much as you like, Sapphire and Mac are there to help every step of the way. It is such a unique way to celebrate, getting your hands dirty and enjoying nature along the way! My daughter definitely was Queen of the forest and the Wild Things that day. We will be doing the same next year!”
