Elsham Hall Gardens & Country Park, at Elsham in Lincolnshire, hires a Grade II listed barn, a courtyard designed by John Carr of York and an 18th-century walled garden for weddings, celebrations and corporate events. The venue takes from small numbers up to 200 guests in total.
Seminars and company events
Private hire covers corporate events, exclusive celebrations, proms, filming and photo shoots, as well as weddings. The venue accommodates smaller, intimate groups up to a total of 200 guests. The pages read describe the setting rather than meeting-room equipment, so organisers should ask about layouts, audio-visual needs and catering when they request a visit. The wedding manager handles bookings and offers personal tours by appointment.
Weddings and receptions
Three spaces are used for weddings: the Main Barn, the Granary, which has an exposed brick fireplace, and an outdoor pergola in the wedding garden with the lake as a backdrop. The venue is licensed for civil marriage ceremonies, indoors or outdoors. It takes 2 to 175 guests, with up to 120 day guests for the wedding breakfast and up to 175 for the evening reception. Hire uses a blank canvas model with no set packages. Couples can choose any suppliers, with those from the venue's recommended list as the default, and they have time to set up the day before and clear the day after. A dedicated wedding coordinator supports the planning and the day.
