Weddings At Chambercombe Manor, Ilfracombe, North Devon
|
Why not hold your civil wedding ceremony at Chambercombe Manor, Ilfracombe, North Devon?
We are a stunning and unique 11th century Manor House situated in picturesque North Devon. Mentioned in the Domesday book and later owned by Lady Jane Greys father, the Duke of Suffolk. You may have your wedding photograph taken in the bedroom where Lady Jane stayed.
Our civil wedding ceremonies are conducted in the Great Hall which dates back to the 11th century and is the original and oldest part of the house. The lime ash floor is around 450 years old and the natural patina is a result of many hundreds of years of people walking on it. The English oak table which is used for the Registrar to conduct your civil wedding ceremony was made during the 1640s. Other period furniture in the room includes an Elizabethan Court cupboard and a beautifully carved 19th century display cabinet reputed to be from the Black Forest in Germany.
The Great Hall has room for 60 guests, 40 seated and 20 standing. If you would prefer you have the choice to sign the register in the Chapel which was formerly the private Chapel of the Champernon family and originally licensed by Bishop Lacey in 1439.
After the ceremony you may have your photographs taken in the many rooms of the house including the Dressing room and the Tudor room.
We have three acres of beautiful gardens with a natural stream running through, a lovely lawn, large pond, silent pool and many other interesting features where you may have your photographs taken.
After your civil wedding ceremony in the Great Hall you may have the use of the gardens and Marquee until 6pm.
As we operate guided tours on Sundays and weekdays we hold our civil wedding and civil partnership ceremonies on Saturdays starting at 2pm and finishing at 6pm.
If you would like a smaller more intimate civil wedding ceremony you may hire the Chapel which can hold up to 10 guests.
Please see Tariffs for packages and prices.
If you or your guests require accommodation we have several lovely cottages at Chambercombe Manor in beautiful North Devon available for hire.
