Description

A Historic Chapel That Makes Your Wedding Day Truly One-of-a-Kind

Nestled in the beautiful Vale of Sussex with breathtaking views over the South Downs, The Chantry offers a wedding venue full of character and charm. This lovingly restored Baptist chapel, built in 1850 and no longer in religious use, provides a stunning and historic backdrop for couples wanting a wedding that feels both elegant and personal.

Intimate, Flexible Spaces Designed Around Your Celebration

Perfect for smaller weddings, The Chantry comfortably seats up to 80 guests, with extra standing room available if needed. One of the venue’s best features is that you get access two days before your wedding—giving you plenty of time to decorate and make the space truly yours. Plus, the entire chapel is exclusively yours on the day, so you and your guests can enjoy complete privacy.

What Makes The Chantry Stand Out

  • Exclusive Use: The whole historic chapel is reserved just for your wedding, ensuring a private and intimate atmosphere.
  • On-site Wedding Coordinator: A dedicated coordinator is on hand to help with planning and to keep everything running smoothly on your big day.
  • Stunning Location: Beautiful gardens and panoramic views of the South Downs provide a picture-perfect setting for your ceremony and photos.
  • Pet-Friendly: Want your furry friends to be part of your celebration? The Chantry welcomes pets, so no family member gets left behind.
  • Accessible and Convenient: The venue offers parking and disabled facilities, making sure all your guests feel comfortable and welcome.
