About
Setting

The House, with its Victorian Orangery, is situated on a high shelf of the South Downs in the beautiful village of Slindon. It has fine views over parkland to the south, where the ground drops steadily to the coast. With uninterrupted views to the sea, the 18-acre setting provides the perfect atmosphere for weddings.

The grounds are extensive, with an ornamental garden featuring an arbor, secret paths meandering through woodland, and a perfectly manicured sunken lawn. There’s also a walled garden! The grounds offer a great choice of beautiful spots to place a luxury marquee, ideal for large parties.

Slindon House boasts an impressive Entrance Hall with its winding oak staircase, leading to a fabulous double-height Grand Hall with the adjoining spacious Blue and Green Rooms, all with characterful fireplaces. There is also a stunning Victorian Orangery adjacent to the main entrance.

Ceremony

Slindon House offers the Great Hall for larger ceremonies of up to 120 guests or the Blue Room for ceremonies of up to 60. Outside ceremonies can be catered for in the Lower Garden.

Reception

Couples can choose to host their reception within the rooms of the House or perhaps set up a marquee within the grounds. The beautiful Victorian Orangery is perfect for arrival drinks and canapés. Slindon House will be exclusively yours for the day and you will have plenty of time the day before to dress the venue to your taste, subject to availability.

The Great Hall can accommodate 120 seated guests with the Blue Room and Green Room also used for canapé receptions.

Food & Drink

The in-house catering team, Quinn Events, will be there to help you every step of the way to plan and cater for your dream wedding.

Local Area

The venue is situated in the charming village of Slindon, surrounded by lovely Downland countryside.

Getting There

Railway links via Barnham and Arundel stations.

Thank you so much for all your work with the food yesterday. We had such a great day and everyone was saying how good the food was – we agree!

Claire & Dan

Susan helped show us around two venues that she caters weddings for, and from the beginning it was an easy process! There were different menu offers to cater for different budgets, and all the food on the day was really tasty. We opted for the BBQ menu but asked for it to be served at the table. It was delicious, and there was plenty of food to go around! The day ran so smoothly thanks to Susan and her staff, and she was on hand from the moment we viewed the venue right up to the big day. No question was too small. She was always happy to help!

Just wanted to say a HUGE thank you for Thursday. The food and whole service was amazing and we’re so grateful to have had you running the show. Everything was so smooth and seamless and we’ve had so many comments about how great the food was.

It’s hard to believe the day has finally happened but thank you so much for persevering with us, being so flexible with all the changes and delays over the years – we couldn’t have asked for more from you!

Liz & Simon

Susan and her team were amazing on our wedding day and provided a fantastic service. In the lead-up to our wedding, Susan was so helpful and accommodating, and nothing seemed like too much. She met with us at the venue a number of times and was reassuring, kind and friendly. Her food was spot on and went down a treat with our guests. 100% recommend and sending a massive thank you to Susan and her team for playing such a massive part in the planning of and making our day go smoothly!

Susan provided us with warm, knowledgeable and professional service from the outset. Her passion for providing beautiful food that is locally sourced and presented perfectly shone through our early communication with her, and she was reassuring throughout the build-up to our wedding day, also liaising with companies we hired linen, crockery and glassware from. On the day, the service of canapés, the wedding breakfast and evening food ran so smoothly and so many guests commented on the delicious food they were served. A lovely touch is that Susan made the evening cheese board into a tiered cake! We would recommend Quinn’s without hesitation. We wish we could eat the wedding meal again!

Thank you so much for everything last Saturday, we had the most incredible day! The venue was beautiful and your team were fantastic.

Lizzie & Donal

Thank you so much for everything you and your team did to make it such a wonderful day on Saturday. Slindon House is such a stunning venue, and the sunshine was a brilliant bonus, but it was all the hard work you did behind the scenes that made it such a wonderful experience. The food throughout the day was gorgeous and the service and attention to detail given by all of your excellent staff was second to none. Please pass our grateful thanks to everyone involved in making our daughter’s wedding the most perfect day. Thank you again, John and Sallie
