New for 2026, the Courtyard Kitchen brings open‑fire cooking to wedding celebrations at Chapel House Estate. This beautiful new space is designed for unforgettable events, relaxed private dining and exceptional food experiences.
With climbing greenery, long tables and a retractable awning, the courtyard can be enjoyed year‑round, adding atmosphere without changing how the space is styled for your day.
Over the past few weeks, our chefs have been putting our bespoke barbecue grill, the Big Green Egg, and our wood‑fired pizza oven through their paces. Purely for research, of course… and the staff have been more than happy to volunteer as taste testers.
We have so many exciting events coming up in the Courtyard Kitchen and number nine, and we’d love for you to be part of them.
