'Ricey' bar

Traditional Rice horsebox trailer bar

‘Ricey’ the Horse box bar was until converted, a normal working horse box complete with lots of straw!


It has undergone a tasteful restoration to transform it into a fully operational standalone bar. It boasts a front and rear bar to add to its versatility. It’s proven to be a real head turner.


There is a draught beer and cider system, fridge, sink, and lighting. There is plenty of room for the back bar to be stacked with spirits and bottled products too. For some events ‘Ricey’ can also stock tea, coffee and hot chocolate.


You have to think ‘out of the box’ with ‘Ricey’ as it can be stocked and decorated to suit your event.

Marquee hire

Many shapes, styles and sizes!
From rustic pop up pole marquee to stretch tents and modern marquees

Our most popular marquees-

The small rustic marquee
Our traditional pole marquee is 6 meters by 6 meters and comes with optional solid sides. We’ve created custom liners for it to give a luxury feel inside. Coupled with our vintage festoon lights it creates a very cosy feel.

The more modern large marquee 
Our larger classic marquee is 9m x 18m and will comfortably seat 150people.  This can be managed to alloy part seating and a dance floor etc. 

We also have stretch tents and other marquees available.

BBQ by Dexter - 
wood fired Braai

A great mix, horsebox with an African braai

If you’re unfamiliar with the term “Braai”, it is what we here in the UK would call a South African Barbecue. 

A Braai is a wood or charcoal fuelled barbecue, but more than that it is an incredibly versatile and exciting way to cook which provides a great social hub for a gathering or celebration!

 

We think that a braai in a horsebox in a great setup and works really well at any event, especially weddings.  A traditional braai is cooked over local hardwood, like kameeldoring wood, which gives the meat and other sides a distinct flavour.

 

What we cook on the braai can be tailored to your event or taste.. lamb, chicken, pork, beef, fish.. 

 

 

Ice cream trike

This is a great addition for us to serve soft scoop ice creams!
