When we say perfect, we really mean perfect. Ashdown Park hosted the perfect wedding reception for us, we cannot thank the staff enough for the service they provided.

Everything was on time, coordinated to perfection, and we thoroughly enjoyed our day. Many of the guests saying it was the best wedding they had ever been to!

Milly, our coordinator, was truly excellent throughout, replying promptly to emails with any queries we had, and made us feel so calm and welcoming on the day. We cannot thank her enough for making our day so special.

We will never forget it and we will be staying every anniversary. Ashdown Park has a very special place in our hearts.

My husband and I just celebrated our wedding at Ashdown Park Hotel on Saturday 30th October. It was genuinely the BEST day ever!

Ashdown Park Hotel is set within an absolutely stunning building and grounds. The service of the staff was impeccable and we couldn’t fault it in any way! All of our guests are still raving about how beautiful the hotel is, and how amazing everything was! A huge thanks to the kitchen team, waiting staff and a big shout out to Tanya, Iona, Gaetan and David Blight the Toastmaster!

From the moment we arrived for our first meeting with Tanya and the team, to the moment they waved us off the morning after our wedding, everything we needed was done for us. The venue itself is beautiful and has such character and we had the most wonderful day that we will look back on and treasure forever.

CIVIL CEREMONIES

At Ashdown Park we have four wedding venues licensed for civil ceremonies, from the stunning Summer House overlooking the lake to the beautiful John Hayward Suite which is large enough to accommodate 140 guests, within the converted Chapel.

Whether you require a civil ceremony, civil partnership, or want to convert your civil partnership to a marriage, we have the perfect setting available with plenty of beautiful backdrops to capture the moment.

Contact us now to discuss your every detail.

ROOMS & SUITES

The Richard Towneley Suite is a converted chapel with a vaulted ceiling and is lit beautifully by stained glass windows. Designed by Harry Clarke, it fills the interior in rainbow shades of coloured light, which creates a magical setting that the bride and groom will remember forever.

The licensed Summer House, which stands in a quiet part of the lawn overlooking the lake, offers an altogether different kind of experience which is more informal and relaxed but no less romantic.

Couples are spoilt for choice when it comes to beautiful settings for photographs. Seek out our beautiful Secret Garden, or a shady spot overlooking the lake, backlit by dappled sunshine streaming through the trees of the East Sussex countryside.

Our Revitalise Spa offers bridal party makeup, manicures and pedicures, as well as pre-wedding spa days. So you can totally relax and allow our team to look after your every wedding need.
