The House at Shuttleworth
A 5,000-acre site in the heart of rural Bedfordshire, with rolling parkland vistas and steeped in compelling history, the Shuttleworth estate offers an extraordinary setting for your day.
Take exclusive-use of the Jacobean-style country house and choose between an array of grand and finely furnished rooms to hold your ceremony, wedding breakfast and evening reception. The Summer House, set within a sunken garden, makes for an idyllic outdoor ceremony venue and the abundance of mature parkland’s ideal if you wish to erect a marquee or tipi.
The Swiss Garden, designed in the late Regency era, is a rare example of period landscape design. Within the garden, surrounded by beautifully manicured lawns are two ceremony venues – The Swiss Cottage and The Grotto and Fernery.
The Collection’s Hangar 3 is a thrilling venue. With tables peppered around masterpieces of aviation and automotive history, this space lends itself to a stylish ‘vintage’ celebration.
