Balcombe Place

Set within the Sussex countryside, this historic country house is available for exclusive hire for weddings, private celebrations and corporate gatherings. The estate combines period character with a relaxed, private setting, giving organisers use of the house and grounds for a day, a weekend or a longer stay. Six reception rooms offer different settings for ceremonies, dining, drinks and evening celebrations, while the south-facing lawn and garden provide space for outdoor ceremonies, photographs and guest activities.

For weddings, couples can shape the day around their plans, with indoor and outdoor ceremony options and flexible room layouts. The Drawing Room is licensed for civil ceremonies, and the Music Room can be paired with the adjoining Billiard Room for dining and dancing. A marquee on the lawn can extend the available space for larger gatherings. The house has 14 en-suite bedrooms, accommodating up to 28 overnight guests, and house meals can be arranged for a shared stay. Drinks service is provided by the venue, and couples choose from its recommended caterers.

The property also welcomes other private events and corporate bookings. Its reception rooms suit dinners, meetings and informal working gatherings, while the gardens offer room to enjoy time outdoors. The restored Sun Room, set apart in the garden, is available for separate hire for smaller celebrations such as christenings and summer drinks parties. The in-house events coordinator works with organisers on the details, and viewings are arranged by appointment. With exclusive use, distinct indoor spaces, outdoor grounds and overnight accommodation, the venue can support occasions that bring guests together over several hours or days.
