HINTLESHAM HALL, IP8 3NS 01473 652 334 | www.hintleshamhall.co.uk Surrounded by peaceful gardens, Hintlesham Hall has an impressive Georgian frontage and an elegant Tudor feature at the back. This Suffolk gem is sure to wow your guests as they wind their way down the tree-lined drive and discover the impressive hall. Celebrate in style There’s a choice of distinctive rooms where you can tie the knot, including the Georgian-style Salon, which has an impressive chandelier, an ornate gold-leaf ceiling and space for up to 100 friends and family. Intimate ceremonies take place in The Justice on the ground floor, which overlooks the back lawns. There are three function rooms too, including The Salon, which, with the adjacent Parlour, is big enough for up to 135 of your loved ones to celebrate in style. Relax in the venue’s inviting lounges, and at the end of the night, retire to the luxuriously furnished bedrooms, many of which have original timber beams and features. We love... The 17th-century plasterwork ceiling in the Carolean is believed to be one of the finest of its kind in the country.
