Description
Wedding Mall offers this stunning venue for you to consider for your wedding day.
Hopton Court set in the heart of Worcestershire
Venue type: Country House
Description: Sitting discreetly on the edge of the hamlet of Hopton Wafers, Hopton Court is set amidst 1800 acres of rolling countryside, allowing guests to enjoy exhilarating views of the Clee Hills and surrounding area.
The large, five-bay, three-storey house dates back to 1776 and is attributed to John Nash. The veranda was added to the south side of the house in 1812, for the comfort and enjoyment of the owners. The magnificent landscaped grounds are the creation of Humphrey Repton. For over 130 years Hopton Court has been the home of the Woodward family, and it is Christopher Woodward who has spent his time and expertise in organising the refurbishment of the property to its present high standards.
Opening out onto the Courtyard, the fully refurbished Coach House still retains some of its original features including its stables and tack room, and provides an ideal location for your Wedding Breakfast, seating up to 60 guests. For larger parties a marquee can be positioned in the Courtyard and attached to the Coach House, accommodating up to 150 guests.
Situated in the rose garden, the unique Victorian cast iron conservatory offers a fairytale setting for your Civil Ceremony, accommodating 50 seated, or 100 standing guests. The flowering shrubs and plants, accompanied by the Mediterranean dÂcor also provide the perfect location for drinks and photography in the gardens, with the background of the main house.
