Lanwades Hall is an elegant and historic venue located in the picturesque countryside of Suffolk, just a short distance from the town of Newmarket. The hall dates back to the 16th century and is surrounded by 120 acres of stunning parkland, making it an ideal location for a wide range of events. It has welcomed King Edward VII as a guest in the past and offers privacy and exclusivity where you can host your event. It features a stunning entrance flanked by mirrored gate houses with wrought-iron gates. Beyond that sits a grand mansion at the end of a tree-lined driveway.

A warm welcome...

The Drawing Room is set out with comfy leather sofas, perfect for relaxing! This room also holds the bar. Being close to the main entrance means it is the ideal place to receive your guests. With dual aspect, you can soak up the view over the surrounding paddocks or relax on the window seat looking up the tree-lined avenue.

If you decide to go for a cosy winter wedding, your guests will be able to enjoy the lovely fire from the grand fireplace in the middle of the room - the smell and the crackling sound is a perfect welcome to your delegates

    When my husband and I went to view Lanwades, we both feel in love with Lanwades to be our wedding venue and booked it. We knew we didn't need to look at any other venues. From first booking and right up to our wedding day the Lanwades team were there for us. They always replied promptly and answered any questions. Charlotte was amazing and I knew she was there with me every step of the planning and most importantly there on the day. Everyone kept telling me that I was really calm and that is all thanks to the Lanwades team. I had complete trust in Charlotte and the Lanwades team and they ensured that we had the most perfect day. I'm sure they were extremely busy in the background for it all to come together but the team only came to us to check in on us and let us know where we needed to be. Charlotte was amazing at helping us prepare the day before and always greeted us with a smile and instantly put us at ease. We have had so many guests thank us for such a wonderful day. As Mike said in his speech, I always aim for perfection and Lanwades was perfect for our wedding day making sure it was everything I dreamed of. We used the Morning room for our ceremony and the Great Hall was both excellent for the wedding breakfast and then to dance in the evening. I love that you have exclusive use of Lanwades so there is a space to cater for all guests. I got ready in the bridal suite which is gorgeous and was the perfect space for myself and my bridesmaids to get ready in. We were lucky with the weather that we could use the beautiful gardens for our photos and the building is stunning for a backdrop. We honestly can't thank the Lanwades team and Charlotte enough. I would 100% recommend using Lanwades Hall for your wedding venue. Mr and Mrs Wearing

    My wonderful husband and I grew up in Newmarket and had no idea that this incredible location existed until we spotted an open day sign one day, when driving past. We had only really just started thinking about setting a date but we stopped in and fell in love with the place immediately. We didn't even bother looking anywhere else. We booked for the whole weekend and honestly am so grateful that we did. Elvis and Alex were so welcoming and made booking the venue of our dreams so easy. Charlotte was fantastic at helping us plan the whole day and both she and Tegan just made everything from setting up on the Friday to packing up on the Sunday seamless. Whenever we visited and especially when we were there for our wedding they made it feel like our home. The venue is stunning, the grounds are beautiful. There isn't a part of this venue that is not to love. We certainly can't thank the team enough and would not change a thing if we were to do it all again.

    My husband and I were married at Lanwades in March of this year. We can't thank the team at Lanwades enough for ensuring that our day went as perfectly as it did. The venue itself is stunning and made for an incredible backdrop to our day. It was only the second venue I had visited but I knew straight away it was exactly what we had been looking for. Charlotte and Elvis were excellent at ensuring the day went smoothly and I felt so reassured in their hands. They recommended an incredible caterer and DJ who we used. The variety of gorgeous rooms within the building allowed our guests to experience different environments during the day which we had some great feedback on. Our honeymoon suite was amazing and we also made use of the guest rooms which were on the upper floor of the building which we booked for our parents so they could be relaxed and feel at ease. My husband is American and our American guests were so impressed with the classic, traditional and picturesque building and grounds. Thank you Lanwades Hall!!!
