    The perfect venue

    Pelham are an absolute must venue! They are so skilled and have honed the perfect wedding service. Nothing was too much or out of the question. I can’t imagine getting married anywhere else now. They were everything we wanted and more.

    Best Venue in Sussex

    We cannot say enough wonderful things about Pelham House—our wedding there was everything we dreamed of and more. From the moment we first visited, we knew it was the perfect place. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, the ceiling as you walk in is breathtaking.

    The team at Pelham House went above and beyond to make our day seamless. Every detail was handled with care and professionalism, and they made the planning process feel so easy and stress-free. A huge thank you to Danielle, our incredible events manager. She was an absolute superstar from day one—so organized, calm, and genuinely passionate about what she does. Danielle made us feel completely at ease throughout the planning and on the big day itself. Danielle kept everything running smoothly behind the scenes so we could fully relax and enjoy every moment. We honestly don’t know what we would have done without her. A special mention has to go to Jonny, the bar manager, who was absolutely incredible throughout the day. Nothing was ever too much trouble for him—he was constantly checking in on us, making sure we had everything we needed, and genuinely making us feel so well looked after. His kindness and attention to detail really stood out and made such a difference to our experience.

    Our guests are still raving about the incredible setting, delicious food, and warm atmosphere. We’re so grateful to Pelham House for helping us create memories we’ll cherish forever.

    Pelham House's reply:

    Hi Chloe, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re over the moon to hear how special your day at Pelham House was, and your kind words about Danielle and Jonny really made us smile. They’ll be so touched to know they helped make your wedding feel so relaxed and memorable.
    The photos you’ve shared are absolutely stunning and it’s such a joy to see the house and gardens brought to life through your day. We're so pleased your guests enjoyed the food, the setting and the atmosphere too.
    Thank you again for letting us be part of such an important moment in your lives – we wish you all the happiness for the future! Best wishes, The Pelham House Team

    Thoughtful, Inclusive, and Unforgettable

    Pelham proved to be an incredible wedding venue, offering an all-in-one experience that made our special day seamless and stress-free. From the ceremony and wedding breakfast to the disco and hotel stay, everything was beautifully contained within one building—a true hidden gem in the heart of Lewes.

    The food was a highlight, consistently praised by both our guests and ourselves throughout the day. To top it off, the weather was wonderfully on our side.

    We deeply appreciated the venue’s inclusivity in hosting a gay couple. The diversity among the staff added to the warm and welcoming atmosphere, making the day even more memorable.

    One of Pelham’s standout features was the availability of two getting-ready rooms—an uncommon yet brilliant touch that made our preparations smoother. It’s rare to find such a thoughtful addition in wedding venues, and we absolutely loved it!

    Pelham House's reply:

    Hi Jack, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're over the moon that your day at Pelham was everything you hoped for. It means a great deal to hear how welcomed and supported you felt—creating an inclusive, memorable experience is exactly what we strive for. The photos from your wedding are absolutely stunning and really reflect the warmth and joy of the day. Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness! Best wishes, The Pelham House Team

    Our April Wedding at Pelham

    We could not recommend Pelham House more. Not only is it the most beautiful wedding venue either myself or my husband have ever been to, but the service we received from start to finish was fantastic. Nothing was too much for Dani and the team and our wedding was more than we could ever have dreamed of. We had a lot of guests but that didn’t seem an issue at any point in the day, the staff were all so accommodating and friendly and they made everything so easy for us. The food and drinks were phenomenal and all of the hotel rooms were absolutely beautiful. A special thanks to Dani for making my dreams come to life, it was all absolutely perfect.

    Pelham House's reply:

    Hi Hannah, Thank you so much for your lovely review! We're thrilled to hear how much you both enjoyed your wedding day at Pelham House. It's wonderful to know the whole team, especially Dani, helped make everything feel so smooth and special.
    We’re so pleased your guests felt well looked after too. We're especially glad you enjoyed the food, drinks and beautiful rooms – we know how important those little touches are.
    Thank you again for choosing Pelham House – it was a real honour to be part of such a magical day. Best wishes, The Pelham House Team

    Amazing day at a beautiful venue

    We had an amazing day at Pelham House. The day ran like clockwork, the food and drink were delicious, and we had the best weather we could have asked for. We chose Pelham House for lots of reasons, including how easy it would be to accommodate guests of all ages, and it worked beautifully. Friends and family booked around 15 rooms in the end and it was so nice to have everyone around us. Breakfast was delicious too. Sophie and all the team were there to answer questions whenever we needed them, and they kept in touch to make sure we didn’t forget anything. A great venue.

    Hi Kirsten, we are so pleased to hear you enjoyed celebrating with us. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. Best wishes, the Pelham House Team

    We fell in love with this venue from our first viewing! Absolutely stunning gardens, perfect backdrop for a wedding, friendly and helpful staff. The separate room away from the main venue for the bride and bridesmaids to get ready was perfect, as was the men’s room too! We attended a food tasting event before the wedding which we highly recommend doing, and the food on our wedding day and the morning after was absolutely delicious, all of our guests complimented it! We had the pizza option in the evening and had a pizza for myself and my husband in our room after the reception party.
    Parking is very limited, but this isn’t a problem as it’s a very short walk from the station car park and the venue put on a shuttle taxi from the station to the venue.
    We would highly recommend this venue!

    5* start to finish

    Pelham house stole our hearts since the first day we walked into the venue!

    The planning team were amazing from the day we booked Pelham to the day we got married!

    They guided us through the planning and made the process so easy! They put us at ease throughout the day!

    We felt it was good value for money getting married on a Monday with a midweek package. They were flexible with our menus choices within the package for food but less so for drinks.

    The venue is beautiful inside and out and is maintained imaculately! We had access the day before and stayed for 2 nights which makes the day run so smoothly!

    The only con is the bar is separate to the dance floor but we had beer and prosecco next to the dancefloor to compensate.

    Would definitely recommend!
