STEPHENS HOUSE & GARDENS 02083 467 812 | www.stephenshouseandgardens.com Stephens House has appeared in many film and television productions throughout the years. The iconic space boasts a stunning classic Italianate-style exterior that the Ink Magnate Henry Charles Stephens extended in the late 1800s. The venue is surrounded by 10 acres of historic landscape within an arboretum of ancient and rare trees, providing endless photo backdrops. The beauty continues indoors, with lovingly refurbished Victorian interiors, private external areas and access to the extensive gardens. The recently restored Dining Room, Salon and Drawing Room are all available for ceremonies and evening receptions. In warmer months, the private terrace is ideal. The venue can host 70 loved ones for the vows and wedding breakfasts; the in-house catering is second to none. Lovebirds can continue celebrations with 120 people in the evenings. It’s “A very beautiful venue for your special day” and “A perfect place for an intimate wedding in North London”, best said by two recent couples. Stephens House & Gardens has a strong connection to the late comic genius Spike Milligan. His statue is on a bench in the gardens, and his grand piano and other memorabilia are on display indoors.
