Thoughtfully reimagined to be the perfect venue, our estate offers you space to bring your tailor-made event to life.
We have always extended this invite to nature, too, and have brought together a dedicated team to preserve and nurture our vibrant grounds.
Nestled behind our Glass Courtyard, alongside the fruiting trees, our kitchen garden is growing to be a constant source of inspiration for our seasonal dishes.
And the wider 35-acre estate is home to an abundance of foraged feasts; we’ve made crackers from our acorn flour, dusted handmade chocolates with powdered nettles, found wild pears and made quick sloe gin.
When we look outside the estate, we only source seasonal food from our trusted local suppliers.
Thoughtfully developed to encourage nature’s growth, there’s rich biodiversity that thrives across our 35-acre estate, and it’s lovingly cared for by our environmentalist consultant, Nik.
A comprehensive wildlife survey has guided our efforts to nurture and protect the estate’s natural inhabitants, with regular sightings of buzzards and even the elusive little owl. Indeed, our hideaway lodges are all named after our resident species.
Bird and bat boxes are in place to provide safe nesting spaces, and we have bee-friendly wooded areas and bee hotels to keep our essential pollinators playing their key role in maintaining biodiversity, and their honey is as golden and pure as it gets.
You can pick up a jar of Chapel House Estate honey and taste the countryside.
To purchase your jar of honey, visit us at our number nine restaurant or give us a call on 01843 881290, and we can arrange a time for collection.
Juliet, our resident gardener, has transformed our grounds with the Wild Apple Orchard into a beautiful meadow, allowing the lawn to flourish naturally to create a serene space for intimate, romantic summer weddings buzzing with bees and butterflies. And in autumn, our bumper crop of apples is celebrated in our number nine restaurant dishes, but with plenty of the fallen fruit left for our resident foraging wildlife too!
Information signs throughout the estate celebrate our rich ecosystem, highlighting wild flowers, moss, ferns, home-grown herbs, shallow nest cups, green roofs, insects and wildlife that all live in harmony with one another.
Our beautifully-restored estate gives you the freedom to create unique memories.
All-out or low-key, we’ll help you design your perfect day with a dreamy backdrop, great food, luxe lodgings and your favourite people.
