Tucked away in the stunning countryside on the border of Northamptonshire and Leicestershire, nestled amongst the trees, you will find The Woodlands, an exclusive-use luxury wedding venue. From summertime ceremonies to twilight festivities, they offer inspired spaces both indoors and outdoors, allowing couples to create a unique wedding experience surrounded by nature.
Start your day with your wedding ceremony outdoors at the enchanted Hideaway. With dappled sun shining through the trees and birds singing in the open air, you will truly feel at one with nature.
Indoors, their enchanting ceremony space, The Heartwood, is at the heart of The Glade. The floor-to-ceiling windows seamlessly blend indoor practicalities with the outdoor charm of the woodland.
The Glade is also home to The Sapwood – a peaceful setting where you’ll enjoy your first meal together as newlyweds, surrounded by nature.
After a truly unforgettable day, having a cosy bed waiting for you sounds perfect. When you book The Woodlands for your wedding day, you and your guests have exclusive access to all of our accommodation, so there’s no need for anyone to make a long trip home at the end of the night. The following morning, gather once again in the Woodlands for a cooked breakfast before departure.
The Woodlands benefits from having its own in-house kitchen team led by its highly skilled Executive Head Chef. Carefully curated wedding breakfast options complement the unique setting and are designed to delight and, above all, taste outstanding! From gourmet dining to relaxed buffets, extensive food and drink options mean you’re sure to find something that suits your style.
Located near the historic market town of Market Harborough, it’s just six miles from the local train station, with direct links to London St Pancras, Nottingham, and Sheffield. With a straightforward route to the M1 at Junction 20, it’s the ideal setting for your wedding celebration-peaceful, picturesque, and perfectly connected.

If you plan to provide your own table decorations, we are happy to set them out for you. We can arrange a time the day before your wedding for you to drop these things off. We asked that items be dropped off in labelled boxes divided up into each table. Any other venue styling, such as the Tipi and ceremony space, will need to be arranged by yourselves.
For all children, please choose one starter, main course, and dessert from the children's menu. The price is £ 35 for children up to 11 and £ 54.50 for children 12 and above. If a child prefers to have the adult menu, the price will be the same as for an adult.
Our estate comprises two distinct venues set within four acres of beautiful countryside: The Woodlands and Hothorpe Hall, located on opposite sides of the grounds. You and your guests would have exclusive access to The Woodlands. However, following our reopening of Hothorpe Hall, we will be hosting separate events.
