About Stubton Hall

Stubton Hall is a Regency country house of 1813-14 near Newark, taken by one wedding a day, with a glass Orangery, 23 acres of grounds and 25 en-suite bedrooms.

Stubton Hall stands near Newark on the Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire border, a Grade II listed country house built in 1813-14 to designs by Sir Jeffry Wyatville, the architect who remodelled Windsor Castle. Raised in gault brick with stone dressings for Sir Robert Heron, it later spent fifty years as a boarding school before being restored. Today it takes a single wedding each day, so the house, its 23 acres of parkland and gardens and its lake are reserved for one couple.

Ceremonies take place beneath the glass roof of the Orangery, which seats up to 200, or in the Music Room, the Conservatory and the Bow Room, each with its own terrace. Outdoor vows are possible on the licensed terrace. The in-house kitchen cooks seasonal menus from local ingredients, and 25 individually designed en-suite bedrooms allow the whole party to stay. The Bridal Suite is kept for the couple, and a two-day wedding can run from Friday into Saturday. East Midlands Airport is about 45 minutes away, and Newark Northgate station lies on the East Coast Main Line.

A house by the architect of Windsor Castle

Stubton Hall was raised in gault brick with stone dressings between 1813 and 1814 by Sir Jeffry Wyatville, who also remodelled Windsor Castle and worked at Chatsworth. It passed through the Royds family, then spent fifty years as a boarding school before being restored to private life as a wedding house.

Beneath the glass of the Orangery

The Orangery is a light-filled glass room opening onto the gardens, where couples marry and sit down to dinner for up to 200. Smaller ceremonies suit the panelled Music Room, the Conservatory or the Bow Room, and a licensed terrace looks over the grounds.

Beneath the glass of the Orangery

The whole house, for one couple

With one wedding a day, nothing is shared. Twenty-three acres of parkland, gardens and a lake belong to the party, along with 25 individually designed en-suite bedrooms, so a wedding day becomes a weekend under one roof.

Candlelight and winter weddings

The reception rooms glow with candles, fairy lights run along the staircase and the Orangery shines against the parkland at dusk. Many couples choose Christmas or the new year for exactly this atmosphere.
