About Ditton Manor
Ditton Manor can cater for receptions or host civil ceremonies on our grounds. From intimate gatherings to much larger weddings full of colour and passion, your celebration will be deeply memorable within our magical surroundings.
With its deep history and idyllic gardens, there is a sense of magic about Ditton Manor. Surrounded by the centuries-old moat, Ditton Manor offers weddings with an array of spaces to suit your needs.
From the moment you arrive, you will feel you’re in a different world – despite the fact that central London is only 20 minutes away. Located just off the M4 and 10 minutes from Heathrow Airport, this 200 acre estate is one of Royal Berkshire’s best kept secrets. And if you choose it for your special day, you’ll have it all to yourself.
There has been an estate at Ditton Park since at least 1066. It was even by Anne Boleyn for a short while as part of her endowment to Henry VIII. Destroyed by fire in 1812 (George III apparently crossed the river from Windsor to watch the blaze), the Manor was rebuilt by 1817.
Whether walking up the aisle in the Arched Court or the Great Hall, your first steps as a married couple will be an experience to cherish. Afterwards, dine in our magnificent glass covered courtyard, cocooned within the historic walls of the manor house. Alternatively, larger parties can be accommodated in our marquee on the lawn, which can be beautifully dressed to exceed your every expectation. Ditton Manor offers a choice of exquisite settings for your ceremony and celebrations, along with delightful backdrops for stunning photographs.
Our team of suppliers can advise on every detail; flowers to chairs, table settings to music, photographers to cakes.
