With direct access to the Orangerie and the reception rooms this space provides seamless indoor to outdoor entertainment for wedding receptions, welcome dinners, canapes and cocktails or even your ceremony, the possibilities are endless. The reception rooms are simply furnished with a touch of contemporary fashion sympathetically matching with this 18th-century château. The indoor space of the Orangerie and Reception rooms provides a very easily set up alternative if the sun is not shining all day for you.

Your wedding can move from location to location on this vast sight giving your event and your guests different environments from the ceremony, cocktails, dinner right through to the dancing!

The barn offers a great space for many types of events. Of course the prime use is the after dinner party for dancing and having fun.

If your wedding is in the cooler months then the barn is a great space for dinner and then dancing, with its own distinct atmosphere with fairy lights installed and three large double doors providing access to the outdoors.

  • We couldn't have wished for more for our wedding. The venue was absolutely perfect, every room was beautiful, the food was amazing and last but not least the staff were out of this world. In fact they went above and beyond for us and our guests for all the days we were there. We did not want to leave! You will not be disappointed.
