WHY WE ARE DIFFERENT

Weddings are all about memories, and at Hillhouse you can be sure they'll be perfect. Hillhouse has been a private country house for over 300 years, and still remains privately owned. We feel that this is what enables us to provide such intimate and private surroundings that create such a wonderful atmosphere for your wedding day. There's no doubt about it, even the most simple weddings need plenty of planning. Our wedding manager can guide you through the complicated and often stressful process of organising a wedding, from numbers to budgets and everything in between. At Hillhouse we use a select range of caterers, photographers, florists, marquee firms, bands and wine suppliers, all of whom have been tried and tested and who meet the very high standards we require here. We understand how important it is for you to have the wedding of your dreams. Let us know about any ideas you have for the big day, we'll do our very best to make them happen. We pride ourselves on our flexibility.
