A grand, Palladian country house, Botleys Mansion exudes period drama elegance. You’ll sense it the moment you catch sight of the house from its leafy private drive. As you ascend the classical stone staircase and enter the hall, a grand piano and glittering chandeliers set the tone for stylish celebration.
From the contemporary orangery-style Atrium, with its soaring glass roof and sweeping staircase, to the more intimate, pastel-hued Green Room, Botleys Mansion can host from 50-288 for your ceremony and wedding banquet, and up to 500 for your evening reception.
The mansion is also licensed for outdoor ceremonies, making its perfectly manicured lawns an enchanting setting for summer nuptials – and bottomless Pimm’s or Prosecco as your guests mingle in the sunshine afterwards. Framed by parkland views, the classical fountain makes a fine backdrop for the photographs. Hosting up to 288, The Atrium is a natural choice for your three-course wedding breakfast, too - and later, as day turns to evening, its chandeliers sparkle against the inky blue of the night sky.
The mansion’s beautiful Botleys Suite is one of 11 elegant bedrooms for hosting family and friends, and stories of the night before are recounted over breakfast together, served in the Drawing Room the next morning. With a long history of planning and hosting exquisite celebrations, the day you dream of is in the best of hands at Botleys Mansion.
