Meon Valley Hotel, Spa & Golf

Meon Valley Hotel, Spa and Golf is a country hotel at Sandy Lane in Shedfield, Hampshire, set in 225 acres of countryside. It has a golf course, a lake, a tree-lined drive and a patio, and it runs a full wedding service.

Why it suits LGBTQ+ couples

Meon Valley is a strong fit for couples who want space and a choice of mood. A formal wedding breakfast and a relaxed barbecue on the patio are both offered, so you can decide how traditional the day should feel. The grounds are large, and golf buggies are available for photographs across the course, which gives you plenty of room away from the crowd.

Ceremonies

Ceremonies are held at the hotel, with the lake, the course and the landscaped grounds as backdrops for photographs. Ask the wedding team which ceremony rooms are licensed and how many guests each one holds.

Receptions and food

Wedding packages can include a three-course wedding breakfast, a tasting for the couple, an evening buffet and a cake table. For a less formal reception, a barbecue on the Hampshire Patio is available.

Staying

The hotel has overnight rooms and a spa, so guests can make a weekend of it. Confirm bedroom numbers and wedding night arrangements with the team.

Getting there and the area

Shedfield lies in the Meon Valley between Southampton, Winchester and Portsmouth. The hotel is reached from Sandy Lane, and the countryside around it suits guests who want a quiet base within reach of the south coast.

The hotel was previously known to many couples under a different brand, so you may still see older names online. It is now run by Britannia Hotels with a dedicated weddings team. The grounds include a lake and a tree-lined drive, which make a clear arrival point for guests, and the patio offers an outdoor space for drinks. Contact the weddings team for current dates, packages and a visit.
