Slindon House is a wedding venue located in Slindon, England. Nestled in the heart of the South Downs National Park, this beautiful 18-acre property was once the summer palace of Stephen Langton, Archbishop of Canterbury to King John and King Henry III and witness to the signing of Magna Carta in 1215. Later rebuilt during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, the Manor House was bequeathed to the National Trust in 1948. Today, couples and their guests are invited to come and experience all that this magnificent estate has to offer. Enjoy sweeping views of the sea and Downland countryside, and be a part of history as you begin the next chapter of your wonderful love story. The venue is available for your exclusive use.

Facilities and Capacity

Slindon House has facilities for indoor and outdoor wedding events, including civil ceremonies, receptions, and private parties. The building boasts a number of fully-licensed function rooms, large enough to accommodate parties of 60 to 130 guests. Outside civil ceremonies can be hosted on the lower garden with far reaching views of the surrounding countryside and sea beyond. The lovely Victorian orangery is a perfect location for a canape reception and the magnificent Great Hall offers the space you need for a beautiful reception. If you wish to have a marquee for larger celebrations, then there is ample space within the extensive grounds. The grounds also feature a sensory garden and stone arbor, a perfect setting for photo opportunities. There are two churches in the nearby village, so couples wishing to enjoy a religious ceremony need not fear disappointment.

Our perfect day at Slindon House

After searching the whole of West Sussex for a venue that was local, had plenty of outdoor space but also a beautiful inside, we finally found Slindon House. The photos do not do it justice. The gardens are absolutely beautiful. We were able to set up the day before making everything as we wanted it. Susan who runs the venue and catering was absolutely brilliant and thought of everything. It can be overwhelming planning at times but Susan would respond to any questions I had (silly or not!) so quickly and put my mind at ease. Cannot recommend this lovely venue enough.

An amazing wedding!

We absolutely loved Slindon House as our wedding venue, it was a wonderful day filled with love, joy and excellent memories.
The staff were very helpful, professional, attentive and very welcoming. We went for the BBQ platter as our Wedding Breakfast and we would highly recommend it...there was something for everyone!
Susan was lovely from start to finish and was very quick at replying to our queries.
We had a wonderful wedding and wouldn't have changed anything about it!
The views are also sublime and added to the happiest day of our lives so far.
We cannot recommend Slindon House enough!

A beautiful venue with incredible views of the downs

We found Slindon House online and were drawn to its location. When we visited for the first time, we met with Susan Quinn (of Quinn's Events catering) and felt certain that it was the venue for us. Slindon House is a stunning venue, with so many unique spaces that can be used for your wedding day. The Orangery in particular is so beautiful and the Great Hall is stunning and looked amazing for our ceremony and reception. The service we received from Susan from beginning to end was incredible; she has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to wedding days and we found this extremely helpful. She even created a separate main course for my Dad for the wedding breakfast, which was hugely appreciated and he said it was one of the best meals he's had! Our guests were blown away by the views of the downs, rolling hills and the sea on the horizon. Such a unique and beautiful and we felt it was incredibly good value.

Amazing food, beautiful venue

We had a Christmas wedding and Susan catered for our traditional Christmas dinner request beautifully, a big ask for 80 guests! Staff were fantastic especially during uncertain Covid times. Susan was responsive, helpful and reassuring. The venue itself is beautiful and lends itself to all types of wedding decor, we were lucky the weather was on our side and we got to enjoy the stunning views outside. Very good value for the amount of rooms you have access to. Highly recommend.
