A Love Story Begins at Southdowns Manor

Nestled in the heart of the breathtaking South Downs National Park, Southdowns Manor is an enchanting wedding venue where timeless elegance meets contemporary luxury. This lovingly restored 19th-century manor offers an idyllic escape, where romance flourishes amidst rolling countryside, a fragrant wisteria walkway, and the gentle charm of an outdoor gazebo. Here, every moment is designed to be as unforgettable as your love story.

A Venue for Every Dream

From intimate elopements to grand celebrations, Southdowns Manor offers an exquisite setting for every wedding style. Licensed for civil ceremonies, couples can exchange vows under the open skies by the picturesque outdoor gazebo or within the elegant interiors of the manor. For those seeking a traditional touch, the Grade I-listed St George’s Church in nearby Trotton is a perfect choice.

Our versatile spaces include the Sussex Suite, an intimate haven perfect for micro weddings of up to 40 guests or stylish cocktail receptions. The bright and airy Conservatory sets the scene for relaxed drinks and cherished moments. For larger celebrations, the Banqueting Suite welcomes up to 150 guests in a stunning ballroom adorned with silk drapes, twinkling fairy lights, and polished wooden floors—where love, laughter, and dancing carry on into the night.

Seamless Service & Exquisite Cuisine

At Southdowns Manor, we believe that every wedding should be as unique as the couple at its heart. Our dedicated wedding coordinator will work with you to craft a seamless experience, from planning the perfect decor to orchestrating the flow of your day. Our talented in-house chefs curate menus tailored to your tastes, whether it’s an opulent banquet or a relaxed buffet-style feast. We also offer thoughtfully designed wedding packages, ensuring that every detail reflects your vision effortlessly.

A Luxurious Retreat

After the last dance, retreat to the romantic honeymoon suite, a haven of elegance featuring a four-poster bed, vintage furnishings, and charming bay windows. With 14 beautifully appointed ensuite bedrooms, Southdowns Manor is perfect for exclusive-use weddings, allowing you and your loved ones to immerse yourselves in a weekend of love, laughter, and unforgettable memories.

Wake up to a delicious breakfast with your nearest and dearest, reminiscing about the magical moments of your special day.
