GREENWOODS HOTEL & SPA 01277 829 990 | www.greenwoodshotel.com What to expect Situated in the rural village of Stock in Essex, the 17th century manor house is set in over 10 acres of landscaped gardens. Renovated and totally refurbished within the last 10 years, the façade and stunning dome-style entrance, together with a sweeping stone staircase has real wow factor. Time to celebrate The Manor House is steeped in history and real care has been taken to ensure original features of the Library and Boardroom suites including original fireplaces, decorative wood panelling and impressive chandeliers. These rooms hold up to 20 guests for a ceremony and wedding breakfast. Proud to offer a truly bespoke experience, the venue’s talented chefs offer a variety of wedding breakfast and evening celebration menus and can cater for all dietary needs. The Garden Suite is the result of a million-dollar renovation and refurbishment programme of the venue and this contemporary space with its floor to ceiling windows, incorporating the original brick of the garden wall, the high spec facilities include presentation screens, partitions to suit all party sizes and a fabulous bar! It has the capacity to host up to 200 guests. We love... There’s an individual suite at the top of the venue, a real luxurious hideaway with sofa, king-sized bed and free-standing bath.
