Ormesby Manor

Ormesby Manor is an exclusive-use country estate and wedding venue in the Norfolk Broads, set in private parkland near Great Yarmouth. Couples can plan a bespoke celebration across the historic manor house and its grounds, with options ranging from an intimate ceremony to a marquee wedding for up to 300 guests. Licensed indoor ceremony spaces include the Parlour and Garden Room, while the gardens and surrounding grounds provide settings for outdoor vows and larger celebrations.

The estate’s experienced events team helps couples shape the day and coordinate with caterers and other suppliers. The venue can arrange food for different styles of gathering, from a formal wedding breakfast or banquet to buffets, barbecues and lighter options. Its Orangery cocktail bar and event bars can be staffed and stocked, and a late licence allows celebrations to continue into the evening. Couples may bring their own preferred suppliers or ask for recommendations.

Exclusive hire can include the manor’s reception rooms and accommodation, giving the couple and guests a private base for the occasion. The Manor House and Well Lodge, together with three Shepherd’s Huts, provide overnight stays for up to 26 people. Larger weddings can use marquees in the grounds, while smaller celebrations may suit the indoor rooms. The estate also accommodates private gatherings and group stays, with catering arranged or self-catering available. With its heritage character, countryside setting, indoor and outdoor options, and on-site lodging, Ormesby Manor offers organisers a flexible location for weddings and selected private events.
