...everything for that special day
CreateMemories
Set back within ample grounds and surrounded by glorious Kentish countryside between Sittingbourne and Faversham, the privately owned Hempstead House Hotel and Spa exudes the kind of convivial atmosphere that over the years has earned it an enviable reputation for genuine country house hospitality alongside professional service. Hempstead House’s unmistakable ambience of open log fires and antique furnishings is the epitome of classic Victorian charm. Rest assured that a courteous and friendly welcome awaits every visitor to this most elegant of hotels.
This distinctive blend of exclusivity makes Hempstead House a most fitting venue for your wedding reception. A beautiful setting, luxurious accommodation and our years of professional experience will ensure that this most special of days remains not only memorable, but is also tailored exactly to your requirements.
Set within 4 acres of beautifully landscaped gardens, our surroundings
make the perfect backdrop for photography. Sweeping lawns, a sunken
garden with a lily pond, a picturesque thatched summer house and a
beautiful garden provide a variety of different and attractive settings.
On arrival at the main entrance, the beautiful stone fountain creates an
atmosphere of tranquillity and leads guests through to the impressive
Coach House Bar where arrival drinks are served. Beyond is the old
Victorian Walled garden which now forms a sheltered courtyard with
seating grouped around a magnificent Roman style Gazebo. This is
licensed for civil marriages so that couples may have their ceremony in
the open air, weather permitting.
A Country House Wedding
A Marriage Ceremony with StyleA civil marriage may take place within our licensed rooms any day of
the week. Bridal couples have the choice of holding their ceremony
in The Heritage Suite, the more intimate Drawing Room or our
beautiful Gazebo if the weather is fine. Whichever you choose, we
will make the reservation with the Registrar with whom you will then
make the rest of the arrangements for the ceremony. Ceremonies are
guaranteed 365 days of the year and payment is made directly to
the registration service. (Please see the enclosed tariff sheet for hire
charges and prices).
The Heritage Suite will seat up to 150 guests for the ceremony, but
can be sectioned off to accommodate smaller numbers. Minimum
numbers do apply on certain days - please see the enclosed information.
The Drawing Room with its classical appointments and antique
furnishings provides a most intimate setting for ceremonies of up
to 30 guests and receptions can then be held in either the Oakly or
Maple private rooms. Our magnificent Gazebo makes the perfect
setting for an open air ceremony. Classical in style, it is in the middle
of the beautiful walled courtyard behind the old stable building
which now forms the reception area to The Heritage Suite.
Please note that it is not possible to have just the ceremony at
Hempstead House on a Saturday. Bookings will only be taken
for couples wishing to have their reception at the hotel as well.
Ceremonies only on other days will be at the discretion of the hotel.
A Grand Entrance
The Heritage Suite is the perfect setting for weddings. The flexible seating arrangements allow for a variety of different layouts and will easily convert to a more informal setting for the evening buffet. There is a large dance floor area with plenty of space for live music or entertainment and The Coach House provides a grand entrance area and spacious bar.
There are also a number of options for the wedding breakfast: The Oakly Room, seating up to 20; The Maple Room, seating up to 30; Lakes Restaurant, seating up to 70; as well as the Heritage Suite which seats up to 150. A full range of wedding breakfast and evening buffet menus are enclosed, along with prices and our wedding co-ordinator is always on hand to help with enquiries.
Luxurious Honeymoon SuitesEach of our three honeymoon suites is different in size, style and decor. One is in the old part of the hotel, one above The Heritage Suite and one above the spa. They all feature six foot beds with luxurious bathrooms; two with Jacuzzi baths; and are elegantly furnished with luxury in mind. Complete your special day with an overnight stay in the one of your choice and enjoy a delicious full English breakfast in bed the following morning.
All our guest rooms are brimming with their own character, having been individually designed and most elegantly finished. Each room is spacious, tastefully furnished and thoughtfully equipped with televisions, direct dial telephones, high speed WI-FI, tea and coffee making facilities, hair dryers and radio alarms. They are all en-suite with bath and shower and include bathrobes and toiletries.
