The beautiful pergola, covered in flowering plants and foliage create a centre piece for your aisle, which leads down to the stylish and quaint summerhouse, where your outside civil ceremony is held.

Guests can enjoy a drink and a delicious home-made canapé on the lawn surrounded by stunning plants and wildlife, and then tuck into a three course dinner especially designed by our award winning chefs. Top off your day with some great evening entertainment in our country feel bar, serving local ales and ciders as well as your favourite tipples.
