From the first time we met Catherine she made us feel very welcome and comfortable, planning every step with us and helping with things we hadn't even thought of. There is nothing more that Catherine and the team could have done to make the day any more special. We would highly recommend Antrobus House.

the front lawn
Grand entrances don't get much better than this! Once you arrive at Antrobus House, step out of your wedding car, walk up the front steps and through our ornate wrought iron gates and up the garden path towards the house.
The double-lawned garden at the front of the house is a spacious area you can use as you wish. Not only is a great for photos, with the facade of Antrobus House your perfect backdrop, it can also be used for 'al fresco' drinks and canape receptions, BBQs/Hogroasts and garden games. It's the perfect chill out spot, where family and friends can gather together, take a seat on the lawn and catch up.
The lawn is also big enough to accommodate a bouncy castle and even a small marquee.
the edmund terrace
Our attractive Edmund Terrace at the rear of the House, overlooking the bowling green is another great place for guests to sit and relax and enjoy the surroundings. With it conveniently being just off the Edmund Hall, it's just a small hop away from the Dance Floor!
If you're planning a more "relaxed" wedding and are considering street-food style caterers, they can easily be accommodated next to the terrace. We've welcomed Fish & Chip vans, Wood--Fired Pizza trailers, Pie & Mash vans to Antrobus House in the past and it's always worked really well.

rave reviews
An absolute hidden gem. All of our guests commented on the beauty of the house and gardens, the convenient location and the helpful staff. We would not hesitate in recommending this venue.
We cannot recommend this venue enough. If you are looking for a venue full of charm and beauty, then look no further. Antrobus House has all that and more!
From the moment we enquired about booking our wedding, right through to the day, every person we had contact with was friendly, helpful and supportive. Stood inside those gates in the magnificent surroundings of Antrobus House, hosting our celebration was magical. We wouldn’t hesitate to do it again!
The venue is beautiful. The staff are highly efficient. I honestly couldn't have wished for a more welcoming, warm, friendly and grand location for our day. It was simply perfect.
We held our wedding here in august. All i can say is "wow!". What a beautiful venue, run by amazing people.
10 years after being named Prom King and Queen at Antrobus House, we knew we had to hold our wedding reception back where it all began! I cannot thank the team enough for everything they did, in the run up to the wedding, during and afterwards! They definitely helped make our wedding day so special.
