STAFFORDSHIRE’S PREMIER COUNTRY HOUSE VENUE

SANDON HALLSTAFFORDSHIRE’S PREMIER COUNTRY HOUSE VENUE

WEDDING VENUE

Sandon Hall, ancestral home of the Earls of Harrowby, is a magnificent location for a whole variety of events.

Visitors cannot fail to be impressed by the mile-long drive that meanders through 400 acres of rolling parkland before the neo-Jacobean Hall, completed by William Burn in 1854, comes into view.

The imposing Hall is a dramatic setting for all types of functions, from weddings and conferences to parties and outdoor events. The scene is completed by William Eames’ 50-acre formal gardens to the rear of the Hall. The gardens, a delight throughout the year, are still considered one of the best examples of their kind in the country.


Sandon Hall offers the dream setting for weddings. The Hall and gardens are offered on an exclusive basis and so they really are yours for the day!

A variety of rooms are available. Brides marrying at the Hall or at Sandon Church can get ready in a private bedroom with fantastic views over the gardens, an oasis of calm before the celebrations commence.

The oak-panelled Library is a sumptuous location for ceremonies, with sunlight streaming in through the large windows and with stunning views over the formal gardens.

Guests can then enjoy drinks and canapés in the Victorian Conservatory, which boasts an award-winning extension including a bar, lift and fully-accessible facilities, something of a rarity in a Victorian house! The modern extension blends perfectly with the original Conservatory and fully complements the venue.

The 50-acre gardens, a spectacle all year round, are always open for guests to explore, while photo opportunities abound. Guests are welcome to bring garden games, to stroll along the many winding paths or just to sit and soak up the atmosphere.

The Saloon provides an opulent setting for the wedding breakfast. The bride and groom can make a grand entrance down the main stairs to rapturous applause, surely the highlight of every wedding and a memory that will last forever. The warm colours of the décor lend themselves perfectly to an atmospheric celebration over high-quality food. In the evening, our resident DJ will be on hand to help you to party the night away – he can provide almost anything and everything to suit all tastes!

For smaller groups, ceremonies can take place in the Old Dining Room with the wedding breakfast in the Library. The Old Dining Room, with its imposing chandelier and portraits of previous generations of the Harrowby family and political acquaintances, is an impressive room for ceremonies as well as smaller wedding breakfasts. With views overlooking the formal gardens, there could not be a better location for an intimate dinner.

Flexibility is a key feature, making every wedding different and allowing couples to structure their day according to their specific requirements. For instance, wedding receptions can start in early or late afternoon. If you want your wedding breakfast to be a ‘late lunch’, why not arrive at 1pm and eat at 2.30? Alternatively, come along at 4 and enjoy dinner at 6.
