Last update: October 2025

Woodland Manor is a truly elegant setting for your wedding day, a place where history, romance, and effortless sophistication come together. Nestled within tranquil gardens, our Victorian manor offers the perfect backdrop for both intimate celebrations and grand gatherings including 34 ensuite bedrooms. We have 3 main rooms here at the manor; The large Victorian dining room called 'The Autograph', the Library and the Conservatory.

We are licensed for legal Civil Ceremonies of up to 112 guests, can host a wedding breakfast for 110, and welcome up to 150 evening guests. The Victorian dining room 'Autograph', adorned with sparkling chandeliers and soaring ceilings, creates an atmosphere of understated luxury. Its soft, neutral palette allows you to bring your own chic, modern style to life. We have an adjacent Libray which is great intimate space for a Telephone box audio message, Crepe stand and evening food.

At Woodland Manor, we believe no two weddings should ever be the same. Each celebration is thoughtfully curated, a tailor-made experience that reflects you as a couple. Whether it’s Espresso Martinis, Aperol Spritz and Peroni served alongside elegant charcuterie cones, or a two-course dinner followed by a sharing dessert board, every detail is designed around your vision. We do also have traditional packages available if you're wishing for a timeless & classic day. If your perfect day involves having a marquee on the lawn, we can accommodate that too!

And for the ultimate finishing touch? A Champagne tower, poured by you, to mark the start of your unforgettable celebration.

From your first visit to the last dance, our team will ensure every moment feels effortless, personal, and perfectly you.

The food for the wedding breakfast was superb - 17th of May 2025

We celebrated our wedding in the Woodland Manor Hotel on Saturday May 17th 2025.
We cannot praise the team who looked after us enough.
The room changes from the ceremony to the wedding breakfast and then the evening dancing were handled perfectly.
The food for the wedding breakfast was superb.
All our family and friends had a wonderful time.

Best day ever!

Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Woodland Manor for your big day - we unfortunately had another venue cancel on us and Woodland Manor did as much as they could to keep the price comparable and make it as easy as possible for us whilst we went through the stress of changing all our plans. The venue is perfect for a wedding, and looks even better now it's had a refurbishment, and the staff were attentive and thorough in all the planning. We had the best day ever.

Amazing Service

I honestly couldn't recommend Woodlands Manor enough! They made our wedding day go so smoothly and every little request I asked for was taken care off. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was brilliant at every step. We married on the hottest day of the year (33 degrees!) and they made sure that every thing still went smoothly and everyone had plenty of water! :)

The best day!

We truly had the best day celebrating our wedding at woodland manor. From the very start, the event team was nothing but helpful and attentive with every question and anxiety we had! They listened to us perfectly ensuring that our day was exactly how we imagined. We had nothing but compliments the whole day! Truly a day me and my husband (and guests) will never forget. Thank you.

(Ps, the refurb makes the place look so dreamy!)

Great venue for the weddings!

Our day was made perfect by the friendly team at woodland! Our vision of the day was brilliantly made by the staff with little direction.
Reasonably priced.
Some minor issues; slight issues with communication across the team. Once replied to an email or spoken on the phone with someone, I quite often was chased for things that I’d already sorted. Also, there was going to be a surprise afternoon tea for me night before however a receptionist did tell me on arrival. Another occasion I asked the venue if they could provide tables for my sweet table and was told no, later I was told yes they could.
The venue did run out of alcohol during the evening of the wedding, although the venue quickly resolved the issue by popping to local shop, my guests were charged high prices for shop bought cans of beer etc
Nonetheless, these issues didn’t dampen our special day!
