Where: Not too far from Stafford, Ingestre Orangery is situated opposite Ingestre Hall and is accessible from the M6 for direct links to Birmingham, Stoke and Manchester. Surrounded by gorgeous countryside, this is a perfect summer venue.
What: The 18th Century orangery is built of brick and faces south, so you’ll get plenty of sunshine hours which creates the most amazingly light and bright space. They have more than enough parking and lots of excellent facilities including easy access toilets and baby changing. The architecture of the building is absolutely stunning, with an Athenian style including a fully glazed pitched roof and a temple structure at both ends with a Doric colonnade.
Weddings: If you’re looking for a quintessential summer venue, this is it. The Orangery has max capacity of 120 (70 seated) and has the perfect floorplan for rows of trestle tables. They pride themselves in their flexibility so are quite happy for you to use your own caterers and understand that every event is unique so will work with you to make your occasion run smoothly. There’s a church just a 5 minute walk away (with a website that has a handy availability calendar), so you’ll never be too far from your next stop, giving your guests time to enjoy the wonderful views of the site. The elegant architecture and gardens of this grade II listed building are the perfect backdrop for your big day.
Who: Upon hiring the space, you’ll be in contact with Lara, who knows everything about the venue and will help organise all the logistical bits.
