Chedington Grange is a country estate near Beaminster in West Dorset with two guest houses, Vielha and Baqueira, a barn and orangery for ceremonies, outdoor pergolas and room for marquees and tents.
Chedington Grange stands on the Chedington Estate near Beaminster in West Dorset, about twenty minutes from the Jurassic Coast. Two guest houses, Vielha and Baqueira, are set around gravel courtyards and gardens, and together they sleep up to 34 guests in en-suite double and twin bedrooms. The houses are let as a private home, so the wedding party has the pool, spa and gardens to itself.
Ceremonies can take place in The Barn, which holds up to 225 guests, in the Vielha Orangery, in the drawing rooms or outdoors under three pergolas. The land around the houses has room for marquees and a range of tents, so the guest list is not set by the number of bedrooms. The houses have indoor swimming pools, saunas or steam rooms and outdoor hot tubs, and treatments such as facials, massages and reflexology can be booked in dedicated treatment rooms.

A private home for the wedding party
The estate in rural West Dorset is arranged so that a wedding party can treat the houses as its own home. Guests have privacy, with the pool and spa reserved for the group, and the emphasis is on having what is wanted at the time it is wanted.
Barn, orangery and pergolas
Ceremonies can be held in The Barn, which takes up to 225 guests, in the Vielha Orangery for up to 155, in the drawing rooms, or outdoors beneath three pergolas. The land around the houses has space for marquees and tents, so the guest list is shaped by the couple rather than by the rooms available.
Spa, pool and treatments
The houses have indoor swimming pools, saunas or steam rooms and outdoor hot tubs. Treatments including facials, massages and reflexology can be booked in dedicated treatment rooms before the celebrations begin.
