Lodge Park - National Trust

Lodge Park is unique: a rare grandstand and deer course set in its own deer park. It was created by the wily and gregarious landowner, John ‘Crump’ Dutton, in 1634 to impress guests of Sherborne House. They would travel to Lodge Park to gamble on the deerhounds racing down the deer course, amidst bouts of feasting and revelry in the 44’ long banqueting chamber.

With a Cotswold stone floor, the Entrance Hall provides an atmospheric setting for your wedding and the romantic glow of candle light adds to the charm of this unusual building. The Entrance Hall is perfect for a small and intimate wedding with 40 guests

Situated on the first floor is the Great Room (formerly the banqueting chamber). This light and airy setting, with windows facing north, south and east, has the benefit of double doors that open onto the balcony, affording magnificent views of rolling Cotswold countryside. This hall can seat 60 guests for your ceremony.

Lodge Park is perfect for celebrating your special day in beautiful historic surroundings.

      An unexpected pleasure....
      An unexpected pleasure - the result of much hard work by the restorers bringin back to life details of a rarely mentioned activity from earlier times the sport of deer coursing.

      I will definitely return....
      I thought Lodge Park was very nice and I really liked the roof balcony. The picnic area was also very nice and there was no litter. I will definitely return.
