Additional details: The Wedding Breakfast
Your wedding breakfast can be held in the beautiful and romantic Victorian Orangery. Planted with exotic fruits, it offers superb views over our rolling parklands and access to the glorious gardens.

Charming Bedrooms
Exclusively available to you and your guests, Weston Park has 28 bedrooms that reflect the unique character of the house. Having welcomed royalty and politicians, both recently and through the centuries, you can be sure you will enjoy accommodation thats entirely appropriate for the most important day of your life. Every room is furnished with family heirlooms, antique furniture and original paintings. In fact, you cannot fail to notice that the historic integrity of this 17th century home has been very carefully preserved. So whilst all bedrooms have their own private bathroom, a small number are not en suite but are exclusively yours.
A Remarkable House
Not so much a house, more a family home. A home rich in history and beautiful treasures. Designed and built in 1671 by Lady Elizabeth Wilbraham, the much-admired house offers a uniquely intimate environment in which to enjoy the magnificent collection of fine art, tapestries, porcelain and objet d'art that has taken over 300 years to draw together. Weston has a rich history to compare with the finest English buildings and castles. It reveals a little of itself at every corner. Together with the most inviting gardens in the region, Weston Park is a treasure waiting to be discovered.
A Home for the Arts
Weston Park is unrivalled in its authenticity as it still houses priceless treasures and collections of fine art that are the envy of the world's most reputable museums. The many treasures stem from centuries of collecting and patronage of artists and craftsman by the Earls of Bradford. Gifted to the nation by Richard, the 7th and present Earl and with the aid of the National Heritage Memorial Fund, the collections are now in the care of the Trustees of The Weston Park Foundation.
A House Fit for World Leaders
From Bill Clinton to Tony Blair, everyone is struck by the warmth and character of Weston Park. The house was the chosen venue for the G8 Summit of 1998 and has also hosted many other prestigious events in recent times.
