Located in Deal, Kent, Betteshanger Country Park is a versatile wedding venue offering three beautiful settings to bring your dream day to life.

Set within 250 acres of Kentish countryside, this unique location offers a peaceful, scenic escape with woodland backdrops, sweeping grasslands and a relaxed atmosphere – the perfect canvas for unforgettable wedding memories.

With nature as your backdrop and a dedicated events team by your side, all that’s left for you to do is wine, dine and celebrate in style.

Facilities and Capacity

Betteshanger Park offers three distinctive venues for ceremonies and receptions, tailored to suit your guest numbers, style, and preferences.

The Glass Room

This light-filled venue features a modern design, with floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with natural daylight. We’ve brought the outdoors in, using rustic textures and floral details to create a countryside-inspired setting that feels both contemporary and romantic.

The Glass Room accommodates up to 120 guests for a seated meal and up to 200 for informal celebrations, making it ideal for larger wedding parties. A neutral interior allows complete creative freedom for styling and décor. Outside, a stretch tent and rustic wine barrel bar area offer the perfect spot for arrival drinks, reception canapés, or even an open-air ceremony.

The Lamp Room

Ideal for more intimate weddings, The Lamp Room is a modern and stylish space with a relaxed atmosphere. Available from 4 pm, it’s perfect for seated meals of 40–50 guests or informal receptions of up to 80–100. Its clean, contemporary design makes it a flexible space for smaller celebrations.

The Woodland Marquee

Surrounded by trees and overlooking the park’s wild grasslands, this outdoor space brings you closer to nature. With oak chairs, a rustic wooden arch, and the beauty of the landscape all around, it offers a peaceful and unforgettable setting to exchange your vows or host a relaxed countryside reception.

Services Offered

At Betteshanger, we understand that no two weddings are the same. That’s why we work closely with every couple to tailor a bespoke package that reflects your vision, budget and preferences. Our catering team offers a wide variety of menu options – from canapés and barbecues to three- or four-course meals – and our Head Chef is happy to collaborate with you to create a personalised menu. A licensed bar and professional beverage service are available across all venues. From the moment you enquire, our experienced wedding coordinator will guide you through every step of the planning process, remaining on hand right through to the final toast on your big day.

A fabulous wedding venue

We were initially wowed by the venue when considering locations for our wedding and were supported very effectively after deciding to choose it. However, the execution on the day was simply superb. The room set ups, the organisation and attention to detail, through to the fabulous food and wonderful staff helped make our day that much more special. Praise should be given to all, but it would be remiss not to mention Anhelina and Jay who were instrumental in making the day such a success. Thanks to you all at Betteshanger Country Park.

We had our whole wedding at the lovely betteshanger country park, what an amazing day it was as well, all the staff were fantastic, so friendly and helpful, the only thing I would ask to be fixed is a small step where the arch is to the isle to the stretch tent, quite a few people triped as its unseen.
A great big thankyou to all the staff involved 😀 you are the best
Very greatfull.

Couldn't fault - A beautiful Day!

The venue team (especially Anhelina) were really accommodating, every weird and wonderful request we had was met! Nothing was too much trouble, the day ran smoothly. The food was amazing, the bar staff in the evening were great. I would recommend if you're looking for a venue that can do everything in one place but also doesn't cost the earth.

2/10/24 Wedding

From start to finish everyone at betteshanger park was absolutely amazing in booking and hosting our wedding! We originally just booked a reception but swiftly changed our mind to have the whole day at bettershanger and definitely do not regret it!

Tyler, our wedding organiser was super helpful from start to finish! Tyler went through so many different options, what we wanted from our day and small details. We had various meetings to make sure everything was perfect and Tyler was always an email away! We got to choose our own menu in which all our guests complimented the size and quality of the food and evening buffet. I highly recommend the styling package as the whole room looked absolutely stunning and meant we had no stress in decorating the day before or the morning of the wedding! Overall we had an absolutely amazing day and an amazing experience with the planning and organising! The cost of the venue and ceremony hire is such an amazing price for the service and quality you receive, I’ve been recommending it to all our friends who are getting married!

A big thank you to everyone at betteshanger who made our day as special and amazing as it was!

Amazing venue and staff!

Beautiful venue, inside and out. The wedding coordinator, Tyler, goes above and beyond, fighting spiders and taking us to the best photo location spots! All food was fresh and loved by everyone. Nothing was too much or out of their wheelhouse. Serving staff were also amazing. Bonus, having the park meant that the kids could go and enjoy themselves!

Perfect venue

From the moment we booked to have our wedding ceremony at Betteshanger Country Park, we felt at ease. The team were accommodating to our needs and made the day happen without a hitch. Our wedding organisor Tyler was like a shadow and was nearby at every point, even when we didn't realize we needed her. The food was delicious and the bar well stocked. We both had a perfect day and can not thank you all enough!
