See full rate card below
Up to 600 guests
The Marquee Lawn is a private space with a stunning lake backdrop.
After your vows, escape into the gardens for a private photo session with your bridal party, while your guests entertain themselves with a drink, a picnic reception and some lawn games.
We can even accommodate food trucks if you’re wanting to plan something a little less traditional and a whole heap of fun.
This garden area is capable of accommodating up to 600 guests while still maintaining an intimate feel.
Please be aware that DIY marquees are not allowed and marquee supplier must be approved by the Trust and will require induction.
Hot tip: If you’re opting for a wedding in the warmer months, be sure to organise some shade for your guests as this is a big, open expanse of lawn.
