The venue combines traditional architecture with contemporary design and facilities, all while offering a nod to the iconic building’s past use as the region’s courthouse, with its domed skylight and extraordinary features like the judge’s dock. The interiors including an industrial vaulted bar and olive trees, have been carefully curated so that breakfast with friends, date night with partners and Sunday lunch with the family all befit the beautiful space. The current menu is offering a satiating selection of small plates, sides and Sunday roasts for good measure. The extraordinary venue also underwent refurbishment in its lofty and spacious nine bedrooms, featuring floor-to-ceiling canopy beds, original fireplaces, and rainforest showers they have everything to offer you and your guests staying for your wedding.

The package at the offer price of £749 includes a gold decorative moongate, a luxury gold welcome easel, and a mini-backdrop, which can be used for your cake, drinks station, food table, guest book or any focal point you see fit. I often marvel at how far we’ve come from the tacky balloon displays of my youth to the chic, sophisticated and downright stunning features balloon stylists are creating now in the 2020s. Resplendent in an oh-so on trend palette of white, gold, green and silver, these beauties made me stop scrolling immediately!
