Danesfield House Hotel and Spa

Danesfield House Hotel and Spa stands on Henley Road at Medmenham, near Marlow in Buckinghamshire. The house sits in around 65 acres of landscaped gardens and estate overlooking the Chiltern Hills and the River Thames.

Why it suits LGBTQ+ couples

Danesfield is a strong fit for couples who want a grand house with the details handled by one events team. Exclusive use is available, and four licensed rooms let you pick a ceremony space to suit your guest list. Gardens and a spa on site mean a wedding weekend can include real rest for you and your guests. A hotel with this much space lets you split the day across several rooms, so quieter moments sit apart from the party. Guests can also arrive early to use the spa before the ceremony.

Ceremonies

Four licensed ceremony rooms host from about 10 to 100 guests, and outdoor ceremonies are possible in the gardens. Larger events can hold up to about 120 guests for a ceremony, a standing reception or a seated meal.

Receptions and food

The in-house team caters for weddings and offers Asian, kosher and halal menus. The events team arranges tours and menu discussions. Wedding open days are held through the year, so you can see rooms dressed for weddings before you book.

Staying

The hotel has 51 bedrooms and suites, sleeping up to about 180 guests. Guests can use the spa, which has a 20 metre pool, saunas, steam rooms and a gym.

Medmenham lies between Marlow and Henley-on-Thames. Marlow has a station with a branch line to Maidenhead, and the M40 and M4 are within reach.
