Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.

When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.

It depends on the event and how long service runs. As a guide, it is around 50 to 400 guests.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
