We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect wedding venue. The interiors at Pelham House are absolutely beautiful and the gardens are simply gorgeous — so neat and beautifully kept. So many of our guests commented on how incredible the venue was! From the very beginning of the planning process, the team were fantastic. Every question we had was answered quickly and we had plenty of meetings and communication throughout which made us feel completely supported in the run-up to the big day. On the day itself, we had Lynne as our coordinator who was amazing. She was kind, friendly, incredibly organised and made sure everything ran exactly as we had planned. Zac met us in the morning and made sure the set up ran smoothly. He was brilliant. All the staff were so friendly and professional - all knowing exactly what they were doing and when. We genuinely can’t thank the venue and the whole team enough for helping us have the most magical and special day. Everything was perfect. The food, drinks and whole vibe of the day was so wonderful. We would wholeheartedly recommend this venue to anyone looking for their wedding!

My wife and I visited for a wedding. The hotel is very nice & the staff are lovely. It's a very small compact hotel but it has some lovely features. The hotel make use of every area really well. The garden at the back is a great area & the BBQ is a really nice touch. One of the staff members who really stood out was B. She actually approached us & took the time to have a chat despite being very busy. The food was lovely. We were well looked after from the time we arrived to when we left. We didn't stay but the rooms we saw looked very presentable. The only downside is the parking hence 4 not 5 stars. You can't park at the hotel but there is plenty of parking near by. The train station is the option most use as it is fairly close and not too expensive compared to other options. All in all, it was a lovely hotel with attentive staff & good food.

We definitely made the right choice when we booked our wedding at Pelham House. The venue is so beautiful and is even more so when decorated. The food, drinks and service provided were outstanding from start to finish. From the initial planning all the way through to the day itself, the team did everything they could to help us have the most amazing wedding day - which we did! We highly recommend this fantastic wedding venue and we will be returning in the future to remember our special day at one of their chefs table events. Thank you so much Pelham team!

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better wedding venue than Pelham House. From the very beginning of the planning process right through to our wedding day, the whole team were absolutely amazing. Everything was so well organised, and every member of staff was professional, attentive, and incredibly friendly. They made us feel completely at ease, and it was clear how experienced and well-trained they all are. Nothing was too much trouble, and they worked so hard to ensure our day ran perfectly. Our guests couldn’t stop complimenting the beautiful venue, the delicious food, and the fantastic staff. Everyone commented on how welcoming and attentive the team were, which made the day even more special. The accommodation at Pelham House is beautiful, and after such a wonderful day, it was lovely to wake up and enjoy a delicious breakfast the following morning. We are so grateful to the entire team for helping to make our wedding day so perfect. Thank you all for your kindness, hard work, and dedication. We will always look back on our day with such wonderful memories, and Pelham House will always hold a very special place in our hearts. Sarah & Rob

Pelham house blew us away from the moment we first visited and delivered above and beyond our expectations on our wedding day. The level of professionalism was great throughout the planning process. Despite a last minute change to the ceremony location from outside due to bad weather Immy made sure everything ran smoothly and on time in her calm professional manner. The food and drinks were exceptional and have been complimented by our friends and family ever since. The venue is absolutely beautiful and perfect to have everyone stay over in the same place to minimise the hassle of getting taxis at the end of the night. Jonny the bar manager and the whole team provided an impeccably high service standard which we really appreciated and contributed to such an incredible day.

We held our wedding at Pelham House in June 2026 and I could not have imagined a more perfect place for us to have been married. Staff: The staff at Pelham House really truly serve with their whole hearts. We were extremely well taken cared of by our event coordinator, Lynne, and the rest of the team throughout the day of our wedding. You could genuinely feel how much everyone truly wanted to make the day special for us - you can't fake that sincerity and joy. They truly went above and beyond. For that, we are so grateful. During the weeks leading up to our wedding day, Lynne was really on top of everything and was THE MVP. She made me feel like I was in really safe hands and I could fully trust her in executing my vision on such an important day. On top of that, she was a delight to work with and was extremely kind and lovely to our families and friends. She is a gem and should be treasured always!!!!!! Food: It has now been three weeks since our wedding and our friends and family are still telling us how much they loved the FOOD. As massive foodies (and all of our friends and family know this), it was very, very important to us to have good food served. Our expectations were extremely high, but wow were they blown away! Particular highlights that our friends still speak of were the beef wellington main course and champagne sorbet surprise course as well as the smoked salmon and lamb canapes! We highly recommend these. The Building: Can we talk about how STUNNING the venue is? When we first entered Pelham House for the first time, we feel in love with the ceremony room (so intimate and classy), the bar area that goes into the stunning garden (highly recommend an early summer wedding like we did because we spent so much time outside enjoying how beautiful it was) and the ballroom (which was a wonderful size for our group of 60 people). I loved how no room is too far away from each other - everything feels so cohesive and easy. Having enough rooms for all our guests to stay was also extremely convenient. A few of our guests told us the next day that it felt like a fun sleepover! Location: My husband and I live in London (although he is originally from East Sussex). With the exception of his immediate family, all of our friends were travelling into Lewes from London and abroad to attend. Nevertheless, the very close location of Pelham House to the train station made it so easy for our guests. This was one of the key factors for us and we loved how convenient and central to Lewes this wedding venue was for all our guests. Conclusion: We did consider "similar" venues in London (which would have been more convenient for our guests and ourselves!) but none compared at all to Pelham House. I would choose this place over and over and over again, and I could not recommend it more highly. Thank you, Pelham House. I am so grateful for the life-long memories and for the most wonderful wedding experience I could ask for.
