Services
Cotswold Marquees was established in 1987 with a single 30ft x 15ft canvas marquee. Our first hire was in the village of Charlecote, a party to celebrate Margaret Thatcher winning the election. At that time we were known as 'Stour Marquees' or 'Stour Valley Marquee Hire'. In the early days we only hired traditional 'peg and pole' marquees and worked out of farm buildings in the hamlet of St Dennis, located between Shipston-on-Stour and Tysoe.
As our expertise in fabrics has developed over the years we have taken on more diverse and bespoke work. For example we have made several canvas roofs for exhibitors at the Chelsea Flower Show, re-covered decorative gypsy caravans and made covers for trailers, boats and cars. We have even made a pit shelter, horse blankets and a cow sling!
Our aim is to manage the marquee installation in a professional and efficient way so that you can relax and enjoy the preparations for your special day. The marquee can be tailored to suit your event. It fact we like to think it can be as unique as you are. Look at our gallery and see the range of interiors and effects we can create with our equipment and your ideas.
When people think about marquees they often have in mind the swooping lines, high roofs, wooden poles and guy lines of a traditional marquee. It has the look, feel and smell of a summer's day. Ideal perhaps for a romantic wedding on the village green with hay bales and strawberry cream teas. A traditional marquee needs a little more space around the edges for a peg line and can only be erected on grass.
These marquees are built on an aluminium frame creating a clear space inside with no obstructions. This gives the freedom to use all the space and to have a free hand in designing the interiors. These structures have no guy line around the outside of the marquee therefore no wasted space at your venue.

We had a great experience with Cotswold Marquees for our wedding in September 2021. Our first meeting on site with Barbara was very informative and she provided lots of examples for us to look through. She also provided a plan with her quote which was so helpful.
Come set up, Ant and his team were professional and efficient. Nothing was to much trouble. The marquee was then checked over by Barbara to ensure everything was ok.
We would definitely recommend. We had a few quotes and Cotswold Marquees were reasonably priced. Thanks again! Katrina and George

From the first meeting all the way through to construction and the day, you and your team have been simply perfection! I cannot thank you or praise you enough.
Ant and his team were fantastic, friendly and impressively efficient. Nothing was too much trouble and everything just went so smoothly.
Your help on the day was absolutely priceless from my point of view. It took so much of the worry out of our minds knowing that you were there to oil the wheels! You certainly know your subject better than anyone I have ever met.
