The Belvedere is an enchanting feature inspired by the walk of The Villa de’Este near Florence. The statue at the entrance is a replica of the Florentine Boar which, in turn, is a copy of the Roman marble statue housed in the Uffizi Museum.

A short wooded walk leads to a natural crescent amphitheatre with a central well, looking out over the Dorset countryside. The location is truly magical, making it a perfect setting for any outdoor celebration.

Popular for events of all sizes, drink receptions and wedding photoshoots. The Belvedere also licenced for civil ceremonies.

The Italian Garden is a beautiful setting for your wedding breakfast, evening drinks or intimate outdoor dinner.

Designed by Thomas Mawson in 1912 the enclosed garden is located outside the Drawing Room.

It is an idyllic venue for a summer celebration, set amongst the beautiful flowers, and next to the central pond.

Built in 1616 and bathed in history, this Grade 1 listed building is truly stunning.

The historic wooden pews and imposing windows give the chapel a wonderfully romantic and impressive feeling. Inside, there is a rare example of a double pulpit and, whilst is no longer large enough to hold the whole school, is used for smaller services as well as weddings and baptisms and will seat approximately 40 people.

When the sunlight pours in through the spectacular windows and the aisle is full of flowers, it creates a magical moment which will be remembered for many years to come.

Please note the Trinity Chapel is available for Roman Catholic ceremonies only.
