Venue type: Country House
Description:
Sitting discreetly on the edge of the hamlet of Hopton Wafers, Hopton Court is set amidst 1800 acres of rolling Shropshire countryside, allowing guests to enjoy exhilarating views of the Clee Hills and surrounding area.

Just west of Cleobury Mortimer, Hopton Wafers is situated between Kidderminster and Ludlow, not far from Bridgnorth, making Hopton easily accessible from South Shropshire, Worcestershire and the Midlands.

The large, five-bay, three-storey house dates back to 1776 and is attributed to John Nash. The veranda was added to the south side of the house in 1812, for the comfort and enjoyment of the owners. The magnificent landscaped grounds are the creation of Humphrey Repton. For over 200 years Hopton Court has been the home of the Woodward family, and it is Christopher Woodward who has spent his time and expertise in organising the refurbishment of the property to its present high standards.

The Conservatory ~
Situated in the rose garden, the unique Victorian cast iron conservatory offers a fairytale setting for your Civil Ceremony, accommodating up to 70 seated guests. The flowering shrubs and plants, accompanied by the Mediterranean décor also provide the perfect location for drinks and photography, leading out to the beautiful gardens, with the background of the main house.

The Coach House ~
Opening out onto its own gravel Courtyard, the fully refurbished Coach House still retains some of its original features including the stables and tack room, and provides an ideal location for your Wedding Breakfast, seating up to 60 guests. For larger parties a marquee can be positioned in the Courtyard and linked directly to the Coach House, accommodating up to 150 guests.

Ceremony Only ~
We also understand that couples may choose to have their Wedding Breakfast and evening reception in a marquee at home, but still want to enjoy a beautiful setting for their Civil Ceremony.

With this in mind we offer the option of holding your Civil Ceremony in the Victorian Conservatory at Hopton Court, followed by a Champagne and canapé reception whilst your photography takes place within the grounds.

Smaller Weddings ~
No Wedding at Hopton Court is too small. We recognise that there are many couples who do not want the complications of a large Wedding, but nevertheless wish to get married in beautiful countryside surroundings, in the company of a few friends and family.

We offer a Small Wedding Package for as few as the Bride and Groom plus their witnesses only, or for larger parties up to a maximum of 30 guests.

Your Wedding Ceremony may take place either in the main House, or in the Conservatory and followed, if you wish, by drinks and canapés served in the Rose Garden or in the Coach House whilst your photographs are taken in the grounds.
