Giant Garden Chess Hire in Carterton

Carterton is only about 13 miles from our Faringdon base, a quick run up through Clanfield, so it gets some of our earliest delivery slots of the day. We cover the whole OX18 area here, including Alvescot, Black Bourton and Shilton. It is a young town with a lot of family birthdays in it, which is exactly what the bouncy castle and the soft play set were bought for.

Carterton is about 13 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 Carterton 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 Carterton
