A Beautiful New Beginning, Just in Time for Yours
Launched in Spring 2026, the reimagined Charles Garden offers a breath-taking outdoor setting for your wedding or special celebration at Down Hall Hotel, Spa & Estate. Located beside our elegant Bridgeman Suite, this exclusive half-acre garden space has been thoughtfully redesigned to blend timeless romance with effortless luxury.
At the heart of the garden lies a wide lawn with seating for up to 180 guests, framed by formal hedging, ornamental grasses, and over 40 newly planted trees. A decorative archway provides a stunning ceremonial focal point, while a 2-metre-wide central aisle creates a dramatic entrance through another sculptural archway – perfect for that unforgettable walk down the aisle.
