Our evening menu takes inspiration from Portugal, with dishes to share, comforting favourites and something sweet to finish.

Come and try something a little different, in a 14th century setting that's anything but ordinary.

We will never host more than one wedding on any given day. When it's your day, our team won't be split across two functions.

Not rushing between rooms. Just completely present for your wedding, from the moment you arrive to the last song of the night.

It's the kind of thing that's hard to put a price on. But for the record, packages start from ÂŁ3,250 for 50 guests.

Ever wished you could travel back in time? You don’t need a machine... just one of our heritage rooms.

Old charm, slower pace and a stay that feels like a little escape from the here and now.

Wedding planning should feel exciting, not stressful ✨

We’ve hosted hundreds of weddings over the years, so there’s not much we haven’t seen. Which means we know exactly how to keep things running smoothly and without fuss.

You enjoy the excitement. We’ll take care of the rest.

So many people in Colchester drive past our front door without knowing what's hidden behind it.

Tucked behind one of the city's oldest buildings, our Secret Garden is the backdrop for outdoor ceremonies, couple portraits, and those stolen moments between speeches.
