About
Setting

Woodhall Park sits at the heart of the private 7,000-acre Woodhall Estate in the Hertfordshire countryside and offers exclusive-use wedding weekends on 8-10 dates from April to September. The Walled Gardens are surrounded by ancient woodlands and sweeping pastures, offering a romantic and sweeping backdrop.

The on-site accommodation welcomes up to 20 guests across four beautifully restored properties for two, three or four nights.

The Walled Gardens, accommodations, and surrounding parkland provide countless opportunities to capture those perfect photographs. From intimate shots of the wedding party during morning preparations to quiet romantic moments away from the excitement of the celebration.

Ceremony

Couples can select from several beautiful ceremony sites to suit their wedding style and vision. Options include:

  • The Walled Gardens: A romantic and secluded space for intimate, nature-inspired ceremonies.
  • Garden House Lawn: A picturesque outdoor ceremony site framed by lush greenery.
  • Parkland: A versatile open-air location, perfect for larger gatherings.
Reception

Celebrate in style within the beautiful surrounds of The Walled Gardens or the expansive parkland. Each space offers flexibility to suit a range of styles and preferences:

  • The Walled Gardens: Enclosed within historic brick walls, this elegant garden creates an intimate, sophisticated setting for dining and dancing.
  • Parkland Site: An open, sweeping landscape where marquees and tipis can be erected for grand, large-scale receptions.

As day transitions to evening, the venue’s atmosphere shifts from a relaxed and tranquil celebration to an exclusive private party. Tiki torches dramatically illuminate the historic walls, setting the stage for an unforgettable night.

Accommodation

Luxurious on-site accommodation offers comfort and privacy for couples and their guests. Three distinctive properties are included within the package price:

  • Garden House: Sleeping eight guests across four beautifully appointed rooms within The Walled Gardens.
  • Beehives: Accommodates four guests across two cosy rooms within The Walled Gardens, and comes with a wood-fired hot tub.
  • Bridge House: A stylish country residence sleeping five guests, situated near the Estate Office.
  • Ware Lodge: Accommodation for up to three guests across two bedrooms, a wood-fired hot tub and stunning views across Woodhall Park.

This on-site accommodation means your family and friends can stay close by throughout your celebrations.

If you are looking to have more guests stay, a bell tent village can be organised in the parkland.

Food & Drink

Couples have the flexibility to curate a dining experience that reflects their personal taste. A list of trusted, recommended caterers is available, but couples can also bring in a caterer of choice. Additionally, the venue is corkage-free, allowing couples to supply their own beverages without additional fees.

Getting There

Conveniently located just north of London and easily accessible from Cambridge, Woodhall offers excellent road and rail connections to the rest of the UK. It’s also a practical choice for international guests, situated less than an hour’s drive from Heathrow, Stansted, and Luton airports.

FAQs
Can we get married on-site?

The Garden House lawn is a beautiful, intimate space for outdoor blessings and celebrant-led weddings. The Walled Gardens at Woodhall are not licensed for civil ceremonies. Still, there are several lovely churches in the area, and the venue's wedding team can work with your needs to coordinate with local churches and with a couple's chosen celebrants.

Can we choose our own marquee suppliers?

We work with a small selection of carefully chosen structure companies who meet our high service, quality and design standards and understand how to get the best from our unique venue.

What style of marquee can we have?

Whatever you like! Our approved structure suppliers offer plenty of variety, including traditional pole marquees, clear span, tipis, pole and canvas, stretch tents and yurts.

Is there indoor space? What if it rains?

The venue is entirely outdoors, but marquees and stretch tents can be used at various sites within and around The Walled Gardens. English weather can be unpredictable, and our team is experienced in dealing with last-minute plan changes to ensure your wedding day goes smoothly.

Is there parking available on site?

Free parking for your guests is available right outside The Walled Gardens.
