“Turn down our tree-lined drive, stop and absorb the breathtaking views of Cothelstone Manor and the rolling Quantock hills”, invites Hidden Lake. a wedding venue “nestled in a breathtaking valley in an area of outstanding natural beauty.” Anyone who has looked at the bloodbusiness.info website will likely predict that any mention of the Quantocks will involve the notorious Quantock Staghounds, a pack of stag and hind hunters that kill deer in the Quantock Hills Living Landscape (the ‘area of outstanding natural beauty’ that Hidden Lakes refers to). They would be correct: the business is run by Stew Ford, harbourer for the Quantock Staghounds (the person who goes out in the morning of the hunt to find the deer that the hunt will try and kill that day), who lives at the hunt kennels. Which would explain why Hidden Lake is also a venue for the Quantock Staghounds Hunt Ball in September 2024.
