About The Old Lodge
Here at The Old Lodge, we understand that weddings can be stressful celebrations to organise, so why not let us take the weight off and take care of some of the load. With our gorgeous spacious gardens and outstanding views across the Stroud Valley’s, there truly is nowhere more relaxing than this! Licensed for civil ceremonies, we can cater for your whole wedding day from start to finish, including guest accommodation. We are proud to be a fully inclusive venue.
Set in the heart of Minchinhampton Common, Gloucestershire, this 400 year old hunting lodge, with spacious gardens and beautiful views across Stroud Valleys is the perfect place to escape the rush. Set against the backdrop of National Trust countryside, there is nowhere more relaxing to spend your wedding day.
The Old Lodge has a newly refurbished panoramic restaurant which seats up to 100 guests, a cosy bar, several smaller, more intimate rooms, including the panelled room and breakfast room and six tastefully decorated double bedrooms.
Our talented team have years of experience to deliver the greatest customer service and will be happy to show you our menu and package choices, or work with you to devise a bespoke menu and customised wedding plans.
We have lots of parking available for guests who are staying elsewhere, whether they are arriving by coach, taxi, car, helicopter, sleigh, horse or parachute! Our dedicated wedding planner is on hand to help you turn your dreams into a gorgeous reality and take care of any last minute touches. For your special day, nothing is too much trouble.
And there can be no better end to your beautiful day than retiring upstairs to the sumptuous master bedroom, sinking into a blissful, much needed sleep and waking to the gorgeous views across Minchinhampton Common and a delicious breakfast with your fellow guests!
