The Charlecote Pheasant Hotel offers a wedding setting brimming with history, charm, and rural elegance, all just five miles from Stratford-upon-Avon in the heart of Shakespeare Country. Located in the quaint village of Charlecote, this beautiful venue pairs a romantic countryside backdrop with easy accessibility for guests.
At the centre of its offering is the Hampton Suite; your exclusive space for the day. This self-contained building, originally the old hayloft dating back to the 16th century, brings together rustic character with modern comforts. Inside, you’ll find a private bar, reception lounge, and ample space for celebrating, while the adjoining outdoor terrace offers a relaxed spot for mingling. For ceremonies, couples can choose the Hampton Suite itself, accommodating up to 120 guests, or opt for the Garden Pavilion, a picturesque outdoor space perfect for summer vows with up to 100 loved ones. For a traditional church ceremony, St Leonard’s Church is conveniently located directly opposite.
The hotel’s dedicated wedding team are on hand from your first enquiry to the final farewell, ensuring every detail runs smoothly. The Lucy Package, for example, includes a welcome drink, three-course wedding breakfast, toast drinks, evening buffet, and luxury suite for the couple, plus thoughtful touches like white chair covers with coloured sashes, use of the gardens for photographs, and exclusive use of the venue for your wedding.
Food is at the heart of celebrations here, with menus that feature comforting favourites and crowd-pleasing classics. Starters might include smoked salmon with chive crème fraîche or roasted tomato and red pepper soup; mains such as roast sirloin of beef with Yorkshire pudding or salmon fillet with lemon and chive sauce; and indulgent desserts like sticky toffee pudding or lemon tart.
With 70 beautifully furnished bedrooms, including family and dog-friendly options, guests can stay on site and enjoy a full English breakfast the next morning. Preferential rates make it easy for friends and family to make a weekend of it.
From its idyllic village location to the warm, attentive service and historic character, the Charlecote Pheasant Hotel is a wedding venue that combines charm, convenience, and a truly memorable setting for your big day.
