Pavilion

Flooded with natural light and standing on the estate’s refined formal gardens, the award-winning Pavilion is our primary licensed ceremony space

Soft drapes and glass sides showcase the scenic garden, leading down the aisle to the stone arches of an Italian colonnade; a romantic setting for your vows. The Pavilion can seat up to 150 of your closest friends and family, offering a beautiful way to enjoy the outdoors in complete comfort.

 

A blank canvas ready to be personalised with wildflowers, ambient lighting, aisle runners and more – it’s yours to bring alive with your favourite touches. There’s even space for a string quartet or pianist to provide a dreamy soundtrack for your ceremony.

The Avenue is a fairytale wedding spot – a tree-lined aisle where nature is the stage for your open-air union. A truly memorable place for your guests to watch your “I do’s”. Whatever your vision, from barefoot boho to whimsical woodland wedding, the space can be dressed to make it come true. This understated but elegant setting lets nature do the talking.
