"Grittleton House is owned by the Shipp family and has been in their careful hands for more than 50 years. With its impressive tree lined drive it certainly offers the wow factor as you arrive. Step inside and you will find many beautiful features and exquisite architecture, including the high decorative ceilings, working fire places and breath-taking sweeping staircase. Look a little closer and you may spot the secret doors and hidden passageways. The House was built for entertaining, with its large ballroom, cosy library and elegant social spaces, not forgetting the impressive orangery overlooking the Italian sunken gardens. Grittleton House offers a magical charm, you can’t help but fall in love with it."

We just wanted to drop you a quick email to say a huge thank you. Our wedding day was just perfect we literally couldn’t fault a thing you and your team were amazing and made our day so special. The rooms are insane and I know you said you would like feedback and the only feedback I have is that it was perfect!
We wish we could relive the day again.
We had our wedding at Grittleton House at the end of March and couldn't have had a more perfect day. Emma, Nelson and the team are amazing and on the day you just enjoy the experience and get swept away with the day. The house itself is stunning! We were lucky to have a sunny day so our guests also enjoyed the orangery and gardens. A truly beautiful venue that needs no embellishment. Thanks again to all the Grittleton team xx p.s. the food is out of this world :)
We had our wedding here on 22 June and it was absolutely fantastic. The house looked amazing and the recent bedroom renovations are amazing. Also, the service the team provides is truly above and beyond. We were so pleased with our choice of venue with Grittleton House and I highly recommend it.
