This Elizabethan manor house is set in 17th-century walled gardens, which house the wonderfully quirky Potting Shed barn wedding venue. At the bottom of the garden lies the pretty Washam Woods.Arriving at the house, guests enter the hall, where they're surrounded by old family portraits, flagstone floors, Persian rugs and a baby grand piano. Glass of champagne in hand, they'll head into the grounds and then on to the Potting Shed, with its exposed brick walls and oak beams. Filled with bohemian elegance, it has a bar at one end and boasts eclectic furniture, rugs, festoon lighting, Chesterfield sofas and old pictures.

Let's celebrate! Smaller ceremonies the Van Wyk Room (20 guests), which is a beautiful panelled drawing room in the main house. Larger gatherings head to the Potting Shed (110 guests), with its red-brick walls and exposed beams. Washam Woods is the perfect spot for a magical woodland blessing.In the Round Garden, a marquee, tipi or yurt can be set up for post-vow parties for up to 150 loved ones. The versatile Potting Shed can be used as an alternative reception area if the weather prohibits the use of the gardens. Its bar lounge is ideal for those wanting to relax and chat.

We love...Couples are invited for a wine tasting at the manor in order to select their big-day beverages.
