A private day with a personal service

Guests arrive through the Lodge Gates and along a half-mile drive across the park. Because the house is not a hotel, a wedding has the estate to itself, and the coordinators shape each day around the couple's own plans, from the wedding breakfast in the marquee or Garden Room onwards.
