Description
Description
We understand the need for privacy and so we only ever hire out the Castle on an exclusive-hire basis. This allows you and your special guests to enjoy the grand venue and its magnificent views, with no interruption and total exclusivity.
Eastnor Castle is licensed for Civil Wedding Ceremonies, or there is a quintessential countryside church just a short walk away in the village of Eastnor. Your Wedding Breakfast and Evening Wedding Reception will be staged inside the Castle itself, as you relax and enjoy the opulence of the sumptuous surroundings. This also means that should the weather be unkind, the memories of your day can be captured within the walls of the beautiful fairytale Castle. However, the sun often shines at Eastnor Castle and when it does, you and your guests can enjoy a drinks reception on the Upper Terrace, overlooking the sparkling lake in all of its elegance.
And so to bed… we have overnight accommodation for the bride and groom, and their close families and friends, in 12 bedrooms, each with their own unique sense of decor and character.

- WWRR1950 (Tripadvisor)20/05/2022The food was excellentThe food was excellentWe visited this castle for a family wedding. It is set within extensive grounds and you arrive at the main entrance by a long winding drive. Inside reception rooms are decorated is a period style with tapestries and many oil paintings on the walls. The wedding was held in the main hall which was later cleared and reset for the banquet. The food was excellent and the staff were very helpful. There is also a bar facility. Bedrooms are available as well which we understand from others were very nice. There are also houses on the estate which can be rented. Immediately outside the main entrance is a large carpark for guests.We visited this castle for a family wedding.

- JJill (Tripadvisor)20/05/2022One of the best days of our livesOne of the best days of our livesEastnor Castle was the venue for our daughter's wedding on 3rd October 2020. Despite the rain and the Covid-19 restrictions this was one of the best days of our lives. Having attended the wonderful Marriage Service at St John the Baptist Church, Eastnor we arrived at the Castle for the reception. The staff made us extremely welcome, the rooms were immaculately laid out and the whole Castle was lovely and warm. Two roaring log fires greeted us as we arrived and lasted the whole afternoon and evening. The food was absolutely delicious - beautifully presented and nice and hot - and the staff were always very helpful and attentive. After the reception, we retired to our rooms which were all very different in design but equally warm and comfortable. A good night's sleep was had by all. We had breakfast the following morning and again the choice was excellent - there was something for everyone. If you are looking for a wedding venue - Eastnor Castle is absolutely stunning, you simply must take a look. We cannot recommend it highly enough.Eastnor Castle was the venue for our daughter's wedding on 3rd October 2020.
