Both have seating capacity of 160. During the spring and summer months the team works hard to ensure the gardens are used to their best advantage while maintaing a backup plan for their couples should the weather become a little British! Ceremonies can take place on the terrace surrounded by the Lavender Gardens, by the river (160 guests) or in the Manor (110 guests). The extensive lawns here provide space and privacy for your drinks’ reception, before you sit down for your wedding breakfast in the Covered Courtyard. Evening receptions take place in The Old Stables, which incorporate the Long Gallery, the bar, the reception room and the games room. Here, you can host 160 loved ones. During the winter, with views out onto the gardens and fires lit, the Garden Hall and Drawing Room located in the Manor offer ideal spaces to host your ceremony and drinks reception. The wedding breakfast at this time of year usually takes place in The Old Stables incorporating the Long Gallery, the Bar, the Reception Room and Games Room, with a natural flow from one to the other. You can welcome 60 ceremony guests, 80 for the wedding breakfast and 120 for the evening.
