What’s your favourite canapé?

We honestly couldn't pick! With different cuisines available from our suppliers list for weddings from cultures all around the world, everything looks so delicious and smells divine! From traditionally 'English' favourites of smoked salmon, herb cream cheese and caviar canapes to the bite-size versions of traditional dishes from Asia, Africa, Western Europe and the Caribbean there really is so much to choose from.

What’s your favourite midnight treat?

Our bar takes its last orders at 11:30 with carriages at midnight. Our midnight treat to you, is that the bar re-opens for residents only at 12:30. This allows you to relax and unwind in our comfortable lounges with your nearest and dearest after the big day. This gives you the time to reminisce on the amazing day you've just had before retreating to one of our luxury hotel bedrooms.

What is your venue's most unique feature?

We the breathtaking conservatory which has floor to ceiling glass walls. This really helps to bring the outside in, making the whole space double the size. The windows are complemented by the original Red Brick of the Manor House, this is a real focal point of the room. It also has a slight alcove which couples love their florist to dress. The top table looks very impressive sat in front of the brick and makes for wonderful pictures. Even in the more overcast weather this location still looks as amazing as it does the warmer months.
