Bignor Park

Visited on mid week national garden charity day on my birthday. Limited formal gardens spaces. But set in more expansive grounds. Pathways not always clear (orchard overgrown and kids tree play area a dead end). Limited flowers in bloom mid June too. Seating mostly in sunshine with limited shade opportunities, bearing in mind the demographic of visitors (senior and limited mobility) I would have expected better thought for their needs. Spent a pleasant couple of hours maximum. The best bit of the day were the friendly volunteers and the tea and cake which made my afternoon.

From the moment we drove into Bignor Park back in August 2019 and met Louise for the first time, we knew that it was the perfect venue for our wedding. Nestled in the South Downs, it truly is a hidden gem and a blank canvas; with the Loggia, Quadrangle, and Zen Pond to the beautiful South Lawn, manicured gardens and Stables, we had the flexibility to truly make our day our own and make our vision for our wedding a reality.Louise was our main point of contact and we were so grateful for her kindness, patience, expert advice, flexibility, reassurance and hands-on approach over the eighteen months running up to our wedding. We couldn't have done it without her! When we made the difficult decision to postpone our wedding due to the pandemic, she was really supportive and proactive, making herself available via a phone call or email if we needed her.We would recommend Bignor Park to anyone! Don't hesitate to book.

We had our wedding at Bignor Park on 17/07/2021 and it was absolutely phenomenal. Right from our first enquiry Louise was welcoming and extremely helpful in working out what we needed and listening to our ideas to help create the perfect day. Bignor Park is an utterly beautiful venue with a huge range of options for your day. we decided to go for a marquee in the courtyard which was more than enough space for our wedding of around 105 people. I would highly recommend this wedding venue to anyone

Imagine getting married in a stunning location, surrounded by beautiful gardens with a view of the South Downs and unicorns strolling past.Ok, I might've made up the part about the unicorns but Bignor Park is so dreamy I was fully expecting one to walk past.Louise has been the venue manager at Bignor Park for nearly ten years and she's an absolute dream to work with. I can't wait to go back and work at Bignor Park again!

We chose Bignor Park as our wedding venue 18 months ago and have been so grateful to Louise for her kindness and support as we’ve progressed towards our wedding day. She is so experienced and has so much wisdom, all of which helped enormously. The venue is absolutely stunning and provides so many opportunities to style your wedding exactly how you want it. On the weekend itself you receive great access, are not rushed at all and can fully make the most of the amazing facilities the venue has to offer. I’m sure every couple thinks this but it was truly the most perfect wedding venue we could have asked for.

We visited Bignor Park in July 2022 as our first viewing at a wedding venue and after the visit, it was a very easy decision to select Bignor Park for our wedding in 2023 (without needing to visit any other venues!).Louise was our main point of contact from our first enquiry right through to after our wedding and was absolutely amazing in supporting us to ensure we got the most out of the venue. Her communication, organisation, tips and advice made the day run so smoothly and she truly is so invested in couples who decide to have their wedding at Bignor Park.The venue itself is so special and you can make it your own as you're given a blank canvas to tailor the day to your preferences and style. We were lucky enough to have clear blue skies on the day of our wedding and got to make the most of the beautiful gardens and views which our guests really enjoyed too.Thank you to Louise and Bignor Park for making our wedding day so seamless - we truly recommend Bignor Park as a wedding venue or at least to visit!

I don't even know where to begin with depicting how incredible of a place Bignor Park is. From the first moment when we originally viewed it, on a cold, wet and very grey day - we knew it was something special. The fact it could still look utterly beautiful in those conditions, meant that come our actual wedding day in the gorgeous sunshine, it looked like a dream.So many of our guests (in fact nearly all!) commented on what a wonderful venue it was. It offers the very best of the English countryside, with stunning views, and amazing backdrops. The venue has unusual and creative spaces throughout - so we were able to achieve our dream of 'al fresco' dining in the UK, whilst still having a covering which made it weather-proof.And of course, the most important aspect of the venue - the amazing Louise who was just such a massive part of our day. Louise's organisation is second to none - she helps make sure that your plans are on track, and we didn't find planning stressful once due to Louise's helpful nudges. It's safe to assume that Louise has thought of everything, and experienced all eventualities. Herself and her lovely daughter Ottilie were there on the day to make sure everything ran smoothly. It was a totally seamless day and genuinely nothing went wrong thanks to the both of them.Bignor Park is one of the most special places to me, we will definitely be back - and can only hope that we'll be lucky enough to attend a wedding there in the future to experience the magic again.

I photographed a wedding at this venue last summer and it’s now one of my favorite places to work. The grounds are amazing and they have lovely lawns and a lot of space for large weddings. The staff are also great.

I came here recently for my best friend's wedding, and it is a beautiful, in fact I'd go as far as to say magical place. The grounds are much bigger than you think they are, and the views (for miles around) are spectacular.
