At the heart of the estate sits the Grade II listed Manor House, surrounded by rose-walled gardens, open lawns and far-reaching countryside views. Weddings can be hosted across a collection of indoor and outdoor spaces, including the Manor House, gardens, stable bar and a purpose-built marquee positioned between the stable bar and lined barn. Couples also have the option to site a marquee elsewhere on the grounds, allowing for flexibility in layout, guest numbers and the flow of the day.
Burningfold offers intimate weddings for up to 60 guests within the Manor House, garden ceremonies for up to 120 guests, and larger celebrations of up to 180 guests within the marquee. The oak-panelled Library, with its impressive fireplace and characterful features, provides a beautiful setting for civil ceremonies and smaller receptions. Ceremonies can also take place in the rose-walled gardens or marquee, while nearby churches including Dunsfold, Chiddingfold and Hascombe offer additional options for religious services or blessings.
Following the ceremony, guests can enjoy drinks and canapés in a variety of settings across the estate - from the walled gardens and open lawns to the waterside courtyard overlooking the lily pond, or beside the outdoor pool. Receptions can be held within the Manor House, marquee or a marquee positioned on the lawns, offering flexibility throughout the day and into the evening.
Burningfold Manor can be hired exclusively for day weddings or multi-night stays. Our on-site accommodation for up to 32 guests includes the Manor House with seven en-suite bedrooms and the newly refurbished Coach House sleeping ten guests, both included for two-night stays. Additional accommodation is available in Chapel Cottage and the Dolls House, a private retreat for the couple, located around the scenic waterside courtyard. Guests staying on site can enjoy the outdoor swimming pool and tennis court during their stay.
As a family-run wedding venue, Burningfold offers a personal and supportive approach. Each couple has a dedicated point of contact throughout their planning, ensuring every detail feels considered and seamless. With a limited number of weddings hosted each year, couples are able to create celebrations that feel personal, relaxed and entirely their own.
Conveniently located within easy reach of London, Guildford, Brighton and the South East, Burningfold Manor combines countryside tranquillity with accessibility.
Burningfold Manor is, at heart, a private country estate that has evolved naturally into a place for celebrations.
Couples have exclusive use of the Manor, gardens and grounds, with the freedom to shape how each space is used and how their day unfolds. From the walled garden and historic rooms of the house to the marquee and open lawns, the estate offers a variety of settings that feel relaxed, personal and special.
What makes Burningfold Manor different is the way that it is run - by a family, alongside a close-knit team who know the estate intimately. With only a limited number of weddings each year, couples are able to create celebrations that feel individual, unhurried and truly their own.
