Waddesdon Manor

About the venue

A French-inspired château created from 1874 by Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild, built for beauty, for a collection and for entertaining. Today it hosts weddings, celebrations and corporate events for 10 to 1,000 guests, amid masterpieces and sweeping gardens.

Waddesdon Manor is a world where art, history and nature meet. Created from 1874 by Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild, the French-inspired château was built for beauty, for a collection and for entertaining, and today it is cared for by the Rothschild Foundation in partnership with the National Trust.

Its doors open wide for weddings, private celebrations and corporate events, with spaces accommodating from 10 to 1,000 guests. Masterpieces and curiosities, sweeping gardens, the Aviary and hidden corners provide an unforgettable backdrop, true to the house's original purpose as a place to entertain.

The Manor Restaurant sits inside the house, and the Manor Shop holds the largest selection of Rothschild wines under one roof, with more than 250 bottles, alongside estate produce and gifts. Guests can stay at The Five Arrows hotel on the estate.

The visitor car park has over 1,000 spaces, including Blue Badge and accessible parking, with a shuttle bus up to the Manor.
