Giant Garden Chess Hire in Burford

Burford calls itself the gateway to the Cotswolds, and at about 16 miles from our Faringdon base it is firmly inside our patch. We deliver party hire throughout the OX18 area, including Fulbrook, Taynton, Swinbrook and Asthall in the Windrush valley. Weddings dominate out here, so the magic mirror, LED dance floor and light-up letters were chosen with honey coloured stone in mind, but a birthday bouncy castle is never turned away.

Burford is about 16 miles from our Faringdon base, comfortably inside our free delivery area, so set up and collection are included like everywhere else.

The giant chess that Burford books

A full giant chess set with its own board mat, laid out on your lawn, terrace or hall floor by us. It photographs beautifully, it slows a party down in the best way, and someone always ends up carrying the queen around.

Some hires make noise, this one makes a scene. A giant chess set turns a quiet corner of lawn into the most photographed square metre of the party. Guests who have not played since school suddenly have opinions about openings, kids commandeer the knights, and the board keeps drawing people in from the first drink to the last dance.

• Full 32-piece giant set with board mat
• Laid out ready to play at your venue
• Wiped, checked and counted before every hire
• Free delivery, set up and collection in Burford

Venues around Burford

Around Burford the venues are old and characterful: converted barns, inn function rooms off the High Street, marquees in riverside meadows and gardens behind thick stone walls. Character usually means quirks, low beams here, a gravel courtyard there, and we plan each set up around them. Village halls in the Windrush valley villages handle the birthdays and christenings, and most have room for a castle or a soft play corner.

Why book local in Burford

Wedding suppliers who quote from a hundred miles away tend to guess. We do not need to guess, we know these lanes, the low arches and where a long wheelbase van cannot turn. One local outfit, one delivery slot, one owner who checked the kit and will stand behind it on the day.
