The Itallian Villa at Compton Acres
Enjoy the best of both worlds at this stunning venue. With full access to all 10 acres of the renowned gardens at Compton Acres, the themed outdoor spaces and picturesque courtyard provide plenty of amazing photo opportunities and, if a beach shoot is on your agenda, the venue is only a three-minute drive away from the award-winning beaches at Sandbanks.
Set over three floors and styled like a grand Tuscan villa, the one-of-a-kind venue can host weddings with up to 180 guests as well as more intimate gatherings. You can tie the knot in the first-floor Verona Suite and for an al fresco setting that’s hard to beat, you can now also get married outside in the romantic I talian Garden.
The grand Medici Suite provides a wow-factor setting for the wedding breakfast and you can celebrate afterwards in the stunning Siena Suite on the lower ground floor joined by 200 loved ones.
