About
This venue is licensed for the performance of civil marriage ceremonies.
Unlike many other venues, we only book one ceremony per day.
The vaulted Entrance Hall, where the marriage ceremonies are performed, can comfortably take 50 or 60 guests seated, with room for up to 20 more standing. If the weather is fine, the bride and groom can choose to make their vows under the canopy of the Tudor porch, with guests seated or standing on the lawn. In this case, the number of guests is virtually unlimited.
For not much more than the cost of a marriage ceremony you can hire the Reception Suite for the whole afternoon, from 12 noon to 5pm inclusive. The bride and groom can marry here, then have their photographs, celebration drinks and a light afternoon meal- perhaps sandwiches or a finger buffet - or even a sit-down wedding breakfast, before going on to another venue or a parent´s or friend´s home for evening celebrations.
The cost for our mini-reception package is £950, excluding catering but including candles to be lit during the ceremony, hire of our chiller cabinet for cooling your drinks, hire of garden furniture in case of fine weather and hire of dining furniture. We can accommodate a maximum of 80 guests for a finger buffet, or a maximum of 50 for a served meal or fork buffet. This facility is available on weekday afternoons only.
If you wish to continue with an evening reception elsewhere we can suggest nearby venues, including hotels, private function rooms, country restaurants and village halls, that you might like to go on to from here.
