Description
Description
Stone Court House is a Grade II* listed Georgian townhouse offering an intimate, romantic and historic wedding venue in the heart of Maidstone, Kent—just one hour from London. Voted a TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice Award Winner for three consecutive years and ranked the #1 hotel for reviews across major platforms, it’s a truly exceptional setting to say “I do.”
Steeped in 700 years of history, the house blends authentic medieval character with elegant Georgian architecture and modern comforts. Couples often describe it as “Bridgerton in Maidstone” — a magical backdrop filled with Tudor fireplaces, oak panelling, period furniture and atmospheric medieval walls.
We specialise in luxury micro weddings and exclusive two‑day wedding celebrations, allowing couples to combine their hen night, stag night, wedding day and honeymoon into one unforgettable experience. Whether you’re planning an intimate ceremony or a full weekend of celebration, everything happens under one historic roof.
Licensed for civil ceremonies, Stone Court House allows you to host your entire celebration in one beautiful location. Exchange vows in the grand Georgian ceremony room for up to 75 guests, then celebrate with up to 120 loved ones for your reception. For those wishing to stay overnight, the venue offers six luxurious en‑suite bedrooms for up to 12 guests, including a breathtaking two‑bedroom honeymoon suite with a Gothic four‑poster bed, roll‑top bath and private living area.
If you’re seeking an exclusive, historic and unforgettable venue, Stone Court House promises a wedding day — or wedding weekend — filled with romance, beauty and timeless charm.
