The Orangery

Breathtaking

At the heart of the evening reception is our stunning Orangery, an effortlessly stylish space that blends contemporary design with the natural beauty of the surrounding countryside. With its expansive glass walls, the Orangery is bathed in soft, ambient light, creating a warm and inviting space for you and your guests. Following the Wedding Breakfast and as the evening unfolds, the Orangery’s spectacular views of our serene gardens and lake serve as a breathtaking backdrop, offering an unforgettable setting for the next chapter of your celebration.

A Unique Sound Experience

Immersive Acoustics

What truly sets the Orangery apart is its state-of-the-art sound system, which ensures that every beat of the music is crystal clear and perfectly tailored to your event. Whether you’re enjoying a live band, a DJ spinning your favourite tunes, or your carefully curated playlist, the acoustics of the Orangery bring every note to life. The sound system is designed to create a rich, immersive experience for the dance floor, when those who still want to have a conversation at the table won't be overpowered by the music.

The Dance Floor Awaits

As your first dance ends and the night carries on, the Orangery transforms into a space where guests can let loose and dance under the stars. Whether you choose a romantic waltz or an upbeat groove, the dance floor becomes the heart of your celebration, filled with energy and joy. The open space ensures that no matter where your guests choose to gather, they’ll be part of the fun.
