Setting

Set on the edges of both Cowdray and Brantridge Forests and easily accessible from London, Gatwick and Brighton, the estate benefits from an elevated position with far-reaching and open views across the valley to the west.
The Estate boasts a picturesque setting encompassing private woodlands, a serene lake, meticulously maintained lawns and enchanting gardens. It’s the perfect sanctuary of natural beauty, creating an exquisite backdrop for your special occasion.
Ceremony
Grand Oak Hall
As you pass through the walled arch and porch, The Grand Oak Hall, with oak beams, provides an imposing yet intimate atmosphere. With windows framing the walled garden, the Hall offers a backdrop for exchanging your wedding vows or hosting your wedding breakfast. The doors can be opened, allowing you and your guests to revel in the outdoor vista while still enjoying the comfort of being seated inside.
Reception
Whether you opt for a celebration within the Grand Oak Hall or a marquee for your meal, there are plenty of options for your reception.
The Walled Garden
The walled garden is a beautiful setting for your post-ceremony champagne reception. With blooming flowers throughout the year, it offers stunning backdrops for your portraits.
The Stable Bar
Get ready to party! The Stable Bar awaits in a separate wing of the Grand Oak Hall, providing the perfect space for an unforgettable party. With its fully stocked bar, the festivities kick off at 7pm, or even earlier if you’re eager to start. From beloved classics to premium selections, the choices are endless, ensuring everyone’s preferences are met. As the evening progresses, the vibe remains lively and vibrant into the later hours.
The Lake
The lake at Greentrees creates an idyllic setting for those considering a marquee. It offers a beautiful location for a drinks reception or sunset photographs. Situated within the Estate, the lake is easily accessible from the car park, so guests can make their way to the gardens, where your exquisitely prepared wedding breakfast awaits. Alternatively, you can host lakeside cocktail sundowners. The possibilities are limitless at Greentrees.
The Hidden Terrace
Located within the estate, the Hidden Terrace stands as the remnant of the original building. You will find this gem as you wander along the Orchard towards the lake. The terrace unveils the preserved chimney from the former farmhouse that graced the grounds of Greentrees. With a stained-glass window framed by wisteria, the hidden terrace is perfect for intimate private dinners or cocktail receptions. Alternatively, you can indulge in late-night pizzas prepared in the terrace’s pizza oven, all while taking in the views of the Estate’s grounds and the tranquil lake.
