Yard resort

About

Yard Resort is located 10 km to the north of Prague in the village of Předboj. It is a multifunctional site that offers modern and diverse facilities, including accommodation in a new modern design hotel. Resort also provides sport activities and golf course.

Wedding ceremony

Yard Resort is ideal for your wedding – it offers not just beautiful places for holding your wedding ceremony outside, but also a number of backup alternatives in the case of rain and areas where a large marquee can be erected and modern catering facilities staged in various styles ensuring that we can meet the wishes of all your wedding guests.

There are a few options where to hold the ceremony.

Pier garden

This garden offers a magical view onto a fishpond and is shaded by aged trees, an indisputable advantage on a hot summer’s day. A staircase to a small gate next to the café leads to the garden from the yard. It is also handily connected with the adjacent terrace and garden and the café facilities. The ideal place for serving a welcome drink and for the wedding guests to gather near to the site of the ceremony.

Orchard garden

The garden can be reached through the golf car park or through the pier garden. Like the first garden, it is located on the bank of a fishpond with a picturesque view of an old fort. The garden is large enough for large weddings, though this is not to say that small weddings held here will not also have their own magic.

Stable

The former stable has beautiful vaulted roofs and a stately appearance and is often used for weddings in the cooler months or as a backup venue in the case of rain. Wedding ceremonies are also held in the stable in the case of rain.

Wedding reception

The Granary is a historical two-storey building. The lower storey is often the main venue for wedding celebrations, while the upper storey is a more peaceful zone that can be used for projecting photographs, as a photography area, as a place where wedding guests can change, as a children’s play area, etc.

There can sit up to 120 wedding guests in comfort on the lower storey, with a reception, wedding cake, presents, and a band or DJ. This stylish venue, in a combination of wood and stone, offers unlimited possibilities for decoration. The Granary has its own enclosed garden where you will be undisturbed by other events and activities at Yard Resort. The yard area can also be used as a play area for children, where they can ride bicycles and scooters, kick a football around, play hopscotch or do some chalk drawings.

The Granary is the ideal place for wedding festivities for 30 people or more as the variability of the venue allows for a wide range of wedding table arrangements along with a dance floor and catering facilities.

Café

The Café is suitable for smaller weddings held in a less formal style.

Zumba Bar

Zumba bar – a venue with a slightly industrial feel ideal for all kinds of parties, DJ dance parties, live concerts, barman shows or dance performances. The venue is, in part, designed as a dance hall with mirrors and a wooden floor that provide a beautiful contrast to the industrial columns and roofs. This is the perfect place when the night really gets going, when wedding attire is swapped for something less formal and more comfortable, when women become beasts of prey and men become Fred Astaire.

Lodging

There are 10 standard rooms, 9 De Luxe and one romantic apartment with spa bath. Total capacity including extra beds is 64 beds.
