Where it begins
Start your day surrounded by your loved ones. We have two dedicated preparation spaces, The Dressing Room & The Campion Room, both offering you a spacious and private area where you and your friends can sip Champagne and enjoy a selection of delicious grazing boards whilst making your wedding day finishing touches. As your guests arrive they can start their celebrations in The Garden Room whilst enjoying fresh coffee and refreshments.
Wedding ceremony
When you’re ready, you’ll make your way to the ceremony room to say your ‘I dos’. Choose from an indoor ceremony in the beautifully light Goring Room or say your vows within the lush private gardens under The Gazebo, surrounded by views of the South Downs. Your forever begins here.
