Weddings at Leonardslee: Two Extraordinary Settings, One Unforgettable Estate
Set within the rolling landscape of West Sussex, Leonardslee offers something rare: two completely distinct wedding settings within one remarkable estate.
Whether you are drawn to the grandeur of an Italianate mansion house surrounded by 240 acres of historic woodland gardens, or the romance of vows among vineyard rows with English sparkling wine in hand, Leonardslee gives you a choice that feels both timeless and unmistakably British.
Leonardslee House
A Private Country House Wedding in the Heart of Sussex
Leonardslee House stands as a 19th-century Italianate mansion overlooks lakes, the valley, and South Downs. Available on an exclusive use basis, Leonardslee House becomes entirely yours for the weekend.
Ten individually designed boutique bedrooms accommodate up to 20 guests, each curated by British design houses and blending period elegance with modern comfort. Chandeliers, ornate ceilings and historic detailing create a setting that feels both grand and deeply personal.
From 17:00 each day, the 240-acre woodland gardens are yours in complete privacy. Meander through rhododendron-lined paths, pause beside the lakes at sunset, or take photographs at one of the estate’s scenic viewpoints across valley and vineyard.
A Leonardslee House wedding is a complete weekend experience. The wedding package includes:
Multi-course dining by the Michelin-starred Restaurant Interlude team
Sparkling wine and canapés during your drinks reception
A three-course wedding breakfast
Overnight accommodation for 20 guests
A return anniversary stay to celebrate your first year of marriage
With prices from £60,000 for 50 guests, this is an estate wedding in its truest sense: immersive, considered, and entirely yours.
If you imagine award-winning English sparkling wine on the terrace, candlelit dining beneath chandeliers, and golden light across ancient woodland, Leonardslee House delivers that vision effortlessly.
Leonardslee Wine Estate
Where Love & Vines Intertwine
For couples seeking a more contemporary yet equally romantic setting, Leonardslee Wine Estate offers vineyard weddings with unmistakable Sussex character.
Set within 37 acres of vines and surrounded by beautiful English countryside, the estate centres around a historic 17th-century house with exposed beams, original fireplaces and south-facing terraces. The atmosphere is intimate, warm and naturally elegant.
Your celebration begins with a glass of Leonardslee English sparkling wine, followed by a three-course wedding breakfast paired with estate wines. For photographs, a golf buggy allows you and your photographer to explore the vineyard and wider 500-acre woodland setting. The Vineyard Hotel offers nine bedrooms plus a four-bedroom cottage, accommodating up to 28 guests.
Wedding guests receive preferential accommodation rates, allowing you to extend the celebration into a relaxed countryside stay.
Wedding proposal packages begin from £130 per guest (minimum 50 guests) for 2026. Here, the mood is golden-hour light between the vines, sparkling wine toasts on the terrace, and a celebration that feels both outdoors and effortlessly refined.
