Brocket Hall Estate

There are three venues on the Brocket Hall Estate, catering for all size wedding receptions and civil ceremonies. Brocket Hall - One of England’s finest stately homes, set in 543 acres of beautiful countryside and with a full and varied history. Built in 1760, the hall has been home to two prime ministers, played host to George IV, Queen Victoria and Lady Caroline Lamb, who introduced the Waltz to England in the Ballroom. This is the room for your Wedding Breakfast; which can seat from 50 - 150 guests and is sumptuously decorated with a stunning ceiling painted by Sir Francis Wheatley. We can welcome up to 200 guests for the evening and your special day will include the unique service of our butlers.
