About Hengrave Hall

This stunning Grade 1* listed Tudor mansion is situated within an impressive 350-acre estate and is an exclusive use wedding venue, which exudes historic charm. With 27 luxurious bedrooms onsite, its own idyllic church you need look no further.

Many of the ground floor rooms in the main house are licensed for Civil Ceremonies (up to 140 people), offering couples a choice of locations depending if it is a small intimate wedding or a large celebration and our experienced, award winning events team will be there to guide and recommend to couples visiting what will suit their requirements.
The sun-kissed West Terrace or the enclosed courtyard can accommodate your drinks reception, with the stunning Long Gallery beautifully equipped to host your wedding breakfast accommodating up to 140 guests for a sit-down wedding breakfast (the courtyard can also be used, weather dependant). Additional rooms include the Library, Oratory, Dining Room, Retiring Room and Children’s Playroom – so whether grand or intimate, Hengrave Hall offers a flexible and exclusive venue to suit. For couples wishing to get ready at Hengrave Hall there are two wonderful preparation rooms, both available on the morning of your special day. Our Queen Elizabeth Suite is situated in a private part of the house, giving you complete privacy to prepare and our blue room comes equipped with Billiard table, flat screen TV and wet room to use in the morning.

Hengrave Hall offers an enchanting experience whether a day guest or staying overnight. With 27 bedrooms on site and a nearby sister hotel on a short drive away All Saints Hotel with 41 en suite bedrooms, you will have no problem accommodating all your guests.

Hengrave Hall and the weddings team are both first class.

The venue is spectacular and very well maintained. The ladies in the office are all very knowledgeable, helpful and are quick to assist with any queries.

It is always a pleasure to visit Hengrave Hall (as we did many times in the run up to our big day), but nothing compares to your own wedding when it is exclusively yours and filled with all of your closest friends and family.

The only downside of having your wedding at Hengrave Hall is that you want to go back even when it’s over, but we hope that we will get to visit again soon!

My wife and I had the most amazing day at Hengrave Hall and could not have asked for a better experience! The staff were absolutely fantastic both during the build up to our wedding and on the wedding day itself. There were incredibly helpful and were prepared to do anything required to help my wife and I out which allowed us to enjoy our wedding day so much more. Hannah, Catriona and Shona certainly contributed to what was a perfect day.

The venue itself is absolutely beautiful and whilst we were lucky enough to have great weather, many of our guests still enjoyed the fantastic rooms of the house as well as the West Terrace. Everyone was complimentary of the aesthetics and service provided and all guest rooms were maintained to an incredibly high level. The affiliation with Milsoms Hotels also meant that the food served was 5 stars with many guests declaring it the best food they have ever had at a wedding, something I would have to agree with even if I am a little bias.

I cannot recommend this venue enough to anyone looking to get married. All aspects of the service are 5 star and I really could not have asked for anything more from the team and the venue itself.

Dear Catriona, Shona and Hannah,

Words won't ever be able to thank you enough for giving Marcus and I the wedding of our dreams. I cried the day we first looked around Hengrave Hall and knew instantly that we would have the most magical day there and I wasn't wrong. You were all brilliant, from the moment we booked we knew our wedding day was in the very best hands. The whole day was perfect from start to finish, and Cat and Shona who were on hand all day couldn't have been more helpful. I would like to say an extra special thank you to Cat for really making me feel at ease in the morning and for taking my shoes outside to scuff them up a little so I didn't slip over! - you really did look after me so well! Our guests all commented on how beautiful Hengrave is and how smoothly and professionally the day was run, we have even had guests tell us it's the best wedding they've ever been to. Everyone commented on how wonderful the food from Milsoms was, so a huge thank you to them too, especially Emma who did an amazing job all day. Thank you once again for making our fairy tale a reality.

We wanted to say a huge, huge thank you for making our wedding on the 18th September the day of our dreams! From the moment we arrived the night before the wedding we were treated as if there had never been another wedding at Hengrave. The bridal party enjoyed a beautiful home-cooked meal in the perfectly suited Barn and we had the most relaxing evening. Then to the morning of the wedding we cannot thank Shona, Catriona and Hannah (apologies if we missed anyone) for their absolute professionalism and kindness. From making sure the morning ran to time and helping me to get my shoes on in time, we don't know what we would have done without you! The wedding day was exactly what we had hoped and dreamed of and we just want to do it all over again - we miss the beautiful visits to the stunning Hengrave already! A special thanks to the team for making sure our Grandparents were looked after and that our Grandad was able to access all the special moments in his wheelchair. We heard that the team even ensured that they had drinks and wedding cake when they took some time in one of the beautiful quiet rooms with friends. We can't thank you enough for going the extra mile to look after our guests, it meant the world to us that they were looked after. The onsite accommodation, the amazing food by Milsom that we can't stop talking about, and an impressive breakfast with our guests the next morning just made the entire wedding so very special.

We honestly could not rate the team and Hengrave any higher - it really is the most perfect wedding venue. We were sold from the moment we drove down that amazing driveway!

Love from Carly and Liam
