Housing two one hundred year old grape vines, this room offers a stunning growing canopy to create a beautifully rustic atmosphere. In summer, grapes are in profusion and passionflowers climb the walls to meet the vines.

Additional Services
Celebration Drinks Service
We invite you to provide your own drink, for which we do not charge corkage. Use of a second room for celebration drinks is included in our civil wedding price. We chill your drink as appropriate, and provide linen, glasses, jugs and ice and open and serve to you and your guests and then clear afterwards, leaving you and your family to relax!
Marquee Receptions
We can seat up to 120 guests formally in our contemporary marquee on the lawns within the Walled Garden. This marquee is complete with matting, dance floor, power and lighting and has the option of open sides for fine weather, or clear large arched side panels for when the weather is cooler.
Intimate Receptions
For a small, intimate reception, we can seat 30 people banquet style in our Fern room, whilst our Vine room could be used for a canapé reception or a small informal buffet for up to 50 guests.
