  1. My wedding at Ashdown Park Hotel

    My husband and I married at the venue July 4th 2015. Anyone else fortunate enough to have experienced their wedding at this venue will know exactly what we mean when the level of service, attention to detail and breathtaking surroundings render you speechless and supersede all expectations. We will remain in awe forever!!

  2. The Astonishing Ashdown Park Hotel

    Where else can you receive first class highly attentive (but unobtrusive) service, stunning buildings, majestic rooms, beautiful grounds and maybe even glimpse a roaming deer. Combining the best bits of the formal and relaxed ‘British’ traditions and sensibilities. And all without needing the budget of the super-rich? Take a stroll around the grounds, venture into the Woods and take tea on the terrace and you’ll understand why a wedding here is truly unparalleled.
