Accessibility

We work hard to ensure that all visitors to Kelmarsh can access as much of the site, with as few restrictions as possible. We reserve space for blue badge parking in front of the visitor centre, and access to the visitor centre is ramped.

We offer a useful orientation map which shows where the location of the assisted access points to the hall and gardens, as well as the disabled toilets and baby changing. It also shows the accessibility of the garden pathways, showing any steps or steep gradients. Many paths in the garden are loose gravel so we recommend that wheelchair users bring a companion to assist them.

Ramps and platform lifts are in place in the Hall to provide almost complete access to the site. We have two platform lifts, one for the main hall and one to provide access to the laundry block and the Learning & Activity Centre. Please ask a member of staff for assistance using the lifts.

Unfortunately, the first floor rooms can only be accessed via a staircase. The laundry tunnel has two steps which may restrict access, but each end can be easily accessed by using the platform lifts.

Kelmarsh Hall is a luxurious exclusive use country house wedding venue, set in the rolling Northamptonshire countryside.
The Hall is a truly romantic place, allowing our couples to enjoy Kelmarsh as it was their home for the day.

Kelmarsh is home to unique fine rooms, perfect for ceremonies, drinks receptions and dancing the night away. The fine rooms are painted in beautiful pastel colours to suit any wedding theme. Along with the Hall, our exclusive use policy extends to the historic award-winning gardens, which can be enjoyed by you and your guests for photographs and garden games.

Included in our wedding packages is overnight accommodation and taxi transfer for the bride and groom, tasteful infill flowers, garden games, a ‘getting ready’ room, a SONOS sound system around the Hall, Baby Grand Piano in our Saloon, and little extras such as a matching cake stand and knife, easels and lanterns.

Kelmarsh Hall is delighted to partner with Portfolio Events, which supplies fabulous catering to ensure you have the perfect wedding menu.

Licensed for Civil Ceremonies, Kelmarsh offers flexible wedding packages, from a simple ceremony and informal drinks reception to a sumptuous wedding breakfast for up to 100 with an evening reception for 150. For more intimate ceremonies, our Orangery provides a light and inviting setting for a ceremony of up to 40 overlooking the countryside. Larger wedding parties can be accommodated in a luxury marquee or rustic tipi on the lawns.

We had the most amazing day and we just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and the team at Kelmarsh for making our day run as smooth as possible. We wouldn’t have wanted our day anywhere else, it was truly magical!

Our guests have not stopped raving about Kelmarsh and how beautiful it is, we couldn’t have chosen a better venue. Thanks for all your help, organisation and keeping me calm throughout the whole process.

I just wanted to thank you for a fantastic day. Still now, I am telling all of my friends and family how amazed I am to have really felt no stress in pulling this together in what has been quite short timelines. Much of that has been down to the professionalism of the Kelmarsh team, and the suppliers you have recommended
