Holmewood Hall is a stunning 18th-century Tudor-style venue, available exclusively to you. Handpicked by Country House Weddings, it provides an idyllic backdrop for a dream wedding. Nestled in the beautiful Cambridgeshire countryside, within 10 acres of lawns, gardens and parkland, it boasts a wealth of character, period features and versatile wedding spaces. A venue for all seasons, you can marry outside at the Bandstand when the weather’s fine, dine in style in the Banqueting Hall and enjoy wonderful views across the lake, then party the night away in the Vault. For indoor ceremonies the Gold Room, with its 50ft-long aisle, is perfect for making a grand entrance. Seating up to 77 people, wow-factor features include an ornate 18-carat gold leaf ceiling, period fireplace and huge stained-glass windows. The Dining Room can seat up to 80 loved ones for a fine-dining experience and there are three fully stocked bars, conveniently located so you and your guests are never far from a tasty tipple. We love… that dinner date events are held throughout the year allowing couples, their family and friends the chance to taste the delicious food available for their wedding breakfast. MANNINGTON GARDENS, NORWICH 01263 584 175 | www.manningtongardens.co.uk This hidden gem is located in a romantic spot north of Norwich and just eight miles from the coast. Nestled in beautiful rural surroundings, the stunning gardens provide a picture-picture setting with the impressive medieval hall in the background. The hall is still a family home today and, although you can’t marry here, there’s plenty of space in the grounds for a magical marquee reception or you can hire the tearooms for a more intimate celebration. We love… the wealth of picture-perfect photo opportunities. www.elizabethyoungphotography.co.uk www.elizabethyoungphotography.co.uk www.pengelly-photography.co.uk HINTLESHAM HALL, HINTLESHAM 01473 652 334 | www.hintleshamhall.co.uk Wind your way down the tree-lined drive to discover this wedding hotspot.
