BERWICK LODGE 0117 958 1590 | www.berwicklodge.co.uk Berwick Lodge is an imposing red-brick Victorian manor house first glimpsed from the end of a tree- and lantern-lined driveway. Set in 18 acres of beautiful gardens and woodland with views reaching to Wales, it boasts features such as a walkway to Aphrodite’s Dome, ornate fountains, an orchard and a summer house, all of which make wonderful photographic backdrops. The interior has everything you’d expect from a lodge such as open fires and wood panelling, but with an East-meets-West twist on the design. Sumptuous over-sized sofas and crystal chandeliers bring a luxurious feel to the place, while retaining a relaxed and welcoming ambience. A sweeping staircase leads to 14 beautiful bedrooms, all individually designed and named after ancient civilisations of the Anatolian period.

Summeria is a beautifully light room upstairs in the converted stable block, The Mews, with skylights and views of the countryside. An original stained-glass doorway leads you to this room in the eaves that can hold up to 50 nearest and dearest for your ceremony. Alternatively, Mesopotamia, also in the Mews, is suitable for larger gatherings, hosting up to 90. It boasts large windows, pillars to decorate and access to a patio area with beautiful views. The dining room, known as Hattusa, can host wedding breakfasts for 20 to 90 guests and up to 150 for the evening bash. The architectural style and elegant crystal chandeliers create a welcoming and intimate atmosphere. Elopement weddings just for the two of you are also available here and are held in the pretty summer house complete with veranda and lined with lavender. You’ll be treated to a complimentary menu and wine tasting evening and most packages include a suite for your wedding night.
