Spotlight on.. Southampton |
|
Chilworth Manor Hotel
Built in 1904, Chilworth Manor is a grand setting for anything from intimate weddings to large celebrations. Be ready to be wowed from the moment you arrive down the rhododendron-lined driveway and walk through the entrance to catch your first glimpse of the impressive galleried foyer. The Edwardian manor house offers a host of desirable spaces and flexible options to suit a range of big-day needs. With a beautiful terrace overlooking the gardens, there’s even a private helipad available for those looking to arrive in style.
The tastefully decorated Lord Selborne Suite is licensed for ceremonies for up to 100 guests and offers fabulous views of the gardens. The room can also be used for the wedding breakfast and evening do and benefits from its own secluded terrace and use of the private Herb Garden Bar. For more intimate affairs, couples can tie the knot in the former library the GK Chesterton, a popular suite just off the main lounge in the heart of the manor.
And for those with a bumper guest list, the Coach House Suite provides a self-contained space to celebrate with room for 140 loved ones for the wedding breakfast and a further 60 for the evening. With its own bar you can party the night away and make use of the side room as a chill-out zone.
We love... the galleried lounge and grand staircase - perfect for romantic just-wed shots.
