Description

AVAILABLE FOR ONE SEASON ONLY – Summer 2025… HIGH AVAILABILITY! Nestled within the rolling countryside on the Kent and East Sussex border, Bespoke (pop-up) at Groombridge offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to host your event on the grounds of one of Britain’s most historic and charming estates. At its heart lies Groombridge Place, a moated manor house steeped in history, built in 1662 by Philip Packer with the guidance of his close friend, the legendary Christopher Wren. With its origins stretching back to the 13th century, this iconic property is a treasure trove of charm, character, and timeless beauty. For a limited time only, you can be part of the next chapter of this estate’s remarkable story, as Groombridge Place is set to transform into a boutique hotel. Until September 2025, the estate’s stunning gardens, romantic moat, and revived vineyard provide the perfect canvas for extraordinary celebrations and unforgettable memories. This is more than a venue—it’s a piece of living history. Imagine exchanging vows or celebrating milestones with the backdrop of centuries-old architecture and sweeping views of the Groombridge grounds. Whether you’re planning an elegant marquee reception, a vibrant festival-style event, or an intimate alfresco gathering, this is your chance to create something truly unique in a setting unlike any other. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to celebrate in a place where history, natural beauty, and your most cherished moments intertwine to create magic.

The most beautiful and secluded venue...

We stumbled upon this stunning venue and the team at Bespoke Events Management. It is the most beautiful and secluded venue. Karianne and the team were extremely helpful throughout the entire process. We had a marquee set up in the garden, and the unspoiled view of the countryside made it truly special. I highly recommend this venue for any event; you won't be disappointed.”

Seamless, magical and unforgettable!

What a magical day we had! The venue was perfect for us and the day went seamlessly thanks to Eve! Eve was with us every step of our wedding journey and was always there for us. We had weekly calls with Eve in the run-up to our big day and she put such a huge amount of effort into making our day so incredible. Eve completely understood our vision and vibe we wanted to create, and we can’t thank her enough! Truly the best day of our lives!!
