In East Sussex, Wadhurst Castle stands proud on 140 acres of private estate. You may recognise the castle from the Netflix hit The Crown, but we’re here to talk about what Wadhurst Castle gets up to around the best time of the year – Christmas.
Located in The High Weald, which is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the borders of Kent and Sussex, Wadhurst Castle has plenty of privacy but isn’t too hard to reach by train, plane or car. If it's not too chilly, make sure you wander around the castle's idyllic gardens and take in the enchanting views of the countryside and Phoenix Lake. While the roses may not be in bloom, you'll see the beauty of the estate when walking through the Walled Garden, under the two magnolia trees, and get to see the majestic castle from the outside. But don’t spend too long in the chill – head inside to see what beautiful, festive things the Wadhurst Castle events team have done with the place.
You can choose from a variety of different event spaces at Wadhurst Castle, whether you're looking to host a small or moderately sized Christmas bash. The team can accommodate up to 100 guests for dining or 130 for an evening party. To give you the best possible experience, the Wadhurst Castle team will present you with a selection of recommended caterers to choose from. With their trusted expertise, you can make your festive get-together really special.
