About
Setting

Eastnor Castle is a dramatic, fairytale castle on a 5,000-acre estate in the Malvern Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The castle is surrounded by a lake, deer park, and arboretum, offering magnificent views of the rolling Herefordshire countryside.

At Eastnor Castle, tranquillity, splendour, and complete exclusivity are assured. The castle is only ever hired out exclusively, allowing the couple and their family and friends to enjoy the occasion fully. The team at Eastnor Castle draws on 25 years of experience in hosting weddings and is committed to exceeding expectations. The flexible and friendly staff will ensure everything runs smoothly, helping to coordinate plans, recommend excellent suppliers, and suggest innovative touches to enhance the day.

Ceremony

There are several ceremony options. The Gothic Drawing Room accommodates up to 90 guests, while the Great Hall can host 150 guests. The Lower Terrace is a popular choice for outdoor ceremonies, providing stunning views across the lake and the Malvern Hills beyond. Additionally, a charming village church is located at the end of the drive, just a short walk away.

Reception

Drinks and canapés can be enjoyed on the Terraces or in one of the breathtaking reception rooms. Guests can listen to soft music and admire the views across Herefordshire while the couple takes romantic photos. The Wedding Breakfast can be hosted in either the Dining Room or the Great Hall, both of which are full of character, charm, and warmth. As the evening approaches, dancing can take place in the Octagon Room. Fireworks are often launched from the far side of the lake, creating a spectacular display as they illuminate the water.

Accommodation

There are 12 guest bedrooms, each individually designed with style and comfort in mind. Additionally, four holiday properties on the estate provide a further 17 bedrooms for overnight guests.

Getting There

Eastnor Castle is just 15 minutes from the M50 and 10 minutes from Ledbury Train Station, making it easily accessible for guests.

Thank you so much for making our wedding day so perfect. From the minute we met Jodie to the last goodbye with Sue we couldn’t have asked for more. Everything was so professional yet so personal, it felt like we were the only wedding – amazing! You are all fantastic!

Bride & Groom

We just wanted to informally thank you, Ben, Sue and everyone at Eastnor Castle for making our big day more special than we could have hoped. It was absolutely perfect, from the seamless organisation, to the delicious food and of course the breath-taking venue. We have had such lovely feedback from our guests and it’s a day we will treasure forever.

Bride & Groom

Thank you so much for helping us organize the wedding – it was an absolute pleasure to work with you. All Eastnor staff were so professional and friendly – they made sure everything was perfect. There was honestly nothing to worry about on our side.

Bride & Groom

Thank you very much for all your help in making our daughter’s wedding day such a joyous occasion, she said it was the best day of her life. Everything went so smoothly and even the weather ‘smiled’ on us. We are also very grateful to all of the castle staff who looked after us so well on the day.

Bride’s Parents

We want to say a big thank you to everyone who helped make our wedding so special, from the lead up preparations to the smooth running on the day. We had the most wonderful wedding day and Eastnor Castle will always hold a special place in our hearts.
