Outstanding venue!
We had the pleasure of attending our sons wedding reception within this beautiful venue, from the moment we stepped into the grounds we couldn't fail to be impressed, the Orchard was lovely for drinks then into the main barn perfect for our main meal and speeches, then the courtyard whilst the barn was prepared for our live band and dancing, this really is an outstanding venue for all occasions, we also stayed within one of the Lodges which was perfect, I can not rate it highly enough!

Perfect in every way
We cannot recommend Chapel House Estate enough. From the very beginning the team here were so helpful and accommodating. We’ve been to weddings before that have felt a little disorganised and of course, things can happen out of anyone’s control, however, as soon as booked our wedding here we felt like we were in safe hands. Throughout the entire process, we felt so at ease, and that’s thanks for the team. Georgia and the team worked so hard for us and it really showed. The day ran so smoothly. The grounds in the venue are truly stunning too and offered the perfect backdrop for our special day. We decided to get married in August as we really loved the orchard and gardens, and to top it off we spent the rest of the day in the beautiful courtyard. We have to mention the food too. We opted for the BBQ option and wow. It was so delicious and all our guests really loved it. In summary, you won’t regret getting married here. The venue is stunning, the team are fantastic and the food is to die for. Thank you so much Chapel House Estate.

My husband and I got married here in August and had the most magical day. All the team, particularly Georgia, Lori, Jade and Sam, were incredible in organising our day and ensuring the day went seamlessly. Every detail was truly thought about! The venue is truly breathtaking and all our guests were blown away by how magical it looked. The food was exquisite which all our guests have continued to talk about. We couldn’t have asked for a better day and will continue to visit for our anniversaries. Jack and Izzy xx

What a venue!
We got married at Chapel House Estate in November and we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day! Everyone was so incredibly kind and helpful and went the extra mile to ensure everything ran smoothly. All of our guests commented on how amazing the venue was and for our family to be able to stay on site with an incredible breakfast the following morning was really special. The food was so good and we went back on our month anniversary in December to the restaurant to celebrate - this will probably become a much loved tradition. Thank you to Georgia, Jade and the team for giving us the most perfect day! Jess & Rob
