About
Setting

Ellenborough Park is a five-star country house hotel, spa, and restaurant in the heart of the Cotswolds. Set within 90 acres of rustic countryside, this historic estate offers an idyllic setting for celebrations of any size, from intimate gatherings of two to grand weddings of up to 120 guests.

Ceremony

Couples can exchange vows in the Old Chapel, under the timeless Stone Gazebo, or outdoors on the picturesque lawns. The surrounding gardens provide a stunning backdrop for ceremonies.

Reception

After the ceremony, enjoy reception drinks and canapés with loved ones. The Mews Lawn offers a delightful outdoor space to mingle, complete with a bar housed under the charming Old Chapel Pavilion. For a more formal reception, the newly refurbished De La Bere Court awaits, featuring a private bar to host your wedding breakfast and evening celebrations.

Accommodation

The estate’s 62 bedrooms provide luxurious and versatile options for you and your guests. Choices include private lodges, opulent manor suites, and rooms with their own gardens overlooking the Cotswolds. Spacious accommodations are perfect for pre-wedding preparations and photography. Wedding couples receive a complimentary night in a luxury room or suite, while guests benefit from preferential rates.

Food & Drink

Couples are invited to collaborate with the Head Chef to design a bespoke menu featuring fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Drink packages are available, and for receptions held in the De La Bere Court, you will have access to your own private bar.

Sustainability

Ellenborough Park is dedicated to sustainability, employing initiatives such as refillable bathroom products, LED lighting, and EV charging ports. The estate supports local ecosystems through eco-friendly practices and partnerships, such as working with a local beekeeper for honey. Achieving Greengage’s Silver ECOsmart accreditation in 2024, the venue strives for continuous improvement.

Local Area

Ellenborough Park is perfectly situated in the Cotswolds, surrounded by rolling hills and charming villages. Attractions include Cheltenham Racecourse, Broadway, and Bourton-on-the-Water.

Getting There

Ellenborough Park is easily accessible by car, train, or air. Located on the outskirts of Cheltenham, it is a 20-minute taxi ride from the city’s train station, a one-hour drive from Birmingham, and two hours from London. An onsite helipad is also available.

FAQs
What do we do next?

Come and see us! Let us know when you're free, and we'll take you on a tour of our wedding spaces so you can imagine how your special day will look. Take a walk down the aisle, picture how you would style your reception room and enjoy a sneak peek into our favourite guest bedrooms!

Does Ellenborough Park have wedding dates available for 2025?

Yes! Let us know if you're thinking of a garden ceremony in the summer months, followed by a drinks reception in the gardens or a cosy winter wedding with candles.

Who will look after our wedding plans at the venue?

As a wedding team, we're super passionate about looking after our couples. The same team will be here from your first meeting to the big day itself and will even help arrange your anniversary stay!

Where do we start with wedding suppliers?

We're exceptionally fortunate to have wonderful relationships with local suppliers, from florists to makeup artists to magicians and photographers-we're here to help!

Can our guests stay at the hotel and park for free?

Of course! Our wedding planner will look after your guest's accommodation needs to ensure any special requirements are met, and with over 100 car parking spaces, including electric car charging points, this is taken care of, too.

Do we have to take exclusive use of the venue?

Not at all! We're delighted to host weddings of all sizes-from intimate ceremonies with just the happy couple to grand celebrations with up to 120 guests and everything in between. Ellenborough Park's thoughtful layout allows us to offer private wedding spaces alongside the main house, with exclusive use available for those seeking an entirely private experience.
