About The Retreat Elcot Park
A refined and relaxed boutique hotel and wedding venue at the heart of the North Wessex Downs, The Retreat is where quirky British sensibility meets elegant, authentic luxury. We blend the old with the new, the refined with the comfortable, and the local with the worldly.
Since opening in June 2022, The Retreat has become a destination of choice for guests from all over the world and was recently named Britain's Best Hotel by The Times and the Sunday Times, topping their list of the Top 100 Places to Stay in the UK. The perfect venue for your dream wedding.
Facilities and Capacity
Inside The Retreat, you can choose from 6 beautiful spaces to hold your Civil Ceremony. With our largest room accommodating up to 80 Guests for your Ceremony and our smallest accommodating up to 6 guests, there are lots of options for you both to think about! During the warmer months, we offer outdoor Ceremonies - what could be more beautiful than exchanging vows with views of the Wessex Downs as your backdrop! We also offer Exclusive Hire of The Retreat.
Once you've tied the knot, you and your guests will enjoy a delicious Wedding Breakfast and Toast as the new couple. A fun Evening Reception will then unfold whilst you mingle, sip wine and dance while the sun sets over the Wessex Downs.
