Welcome drinks in the rose garden, then the wedding breakfast in the Waterloo Suite, followed by an evening buffet. We have the venue until 1am, with 25 rooms for those staying over.

Careful: this isn't the Wellington Arms in Baughurst. That one is very special to us, it's our favourite restaurant and where we first went for dinner together. We'd recommend it! But it's not the right Wellington Arms for our reception.

Directions
The rose garden at Wellington Arms.
The Waterloo Suite at Wellington Arms.
The grounds of Wellington Arms in the Hampshire countryside.
