Couples and their guests have sole access to the grounds on their special day.
Located in beautiful Northamptonshire, Holdenby House is the surviving wing of an Elizabethan palace built 1583. The venue holds up to 108 for a seated meal in one room and more than double that with the use of several rooms.
