May we take this opportunity to congratulate you on your forthcoming marriage; we are delighted that you are considering ourselves to host your special day. Originally built as a private residence in 1898 the Whitehall has been lovingly restored into a fine country house hotel, set in 4 acres of mature gardens and woodland. With extensive event facilities, we are able to accommodate small or large weddings and provide an idyllic setting. You can rely on being treated with care and receiving the attention to detail expected on your special day. • Food prepared with passion • Mature gardens and woodland • Elegantly-styled reception suites • Sweeping staircase and spectacular crystal chandelier • Ambience of a Victorian manor • En-suite bedrooms with spa baths • Spacious bridal suite with a 4 poster bed and twin bath • Something that little bit different - Bridal Pamper Room & On-Site Gin Distillery where you would be able to make your own gin which you may give your guests as your unique wedding favor! It's a fact that it rains for at least 150 days, almost half a year....don't worry we are the perfect venue for all seasons - rain or shine!

Simply perfect
From the start of the preparations to our wedding day we couldn't have asked for more from our dedicated wedding planner and the staff at Whitehall. Nothing was too much trouble and they were always on hand to offer their help and advice. We received so many compliments from our guest about the wedding breakfast, one even saying that it was the best food she had eaten and she has been to 7 weddings this year! Whitehall is such great value for money and would encourage any couple to go and see it for themselves!
