Your Cheshire & Merseyside Wedding - November/December 2019 (Issue 48)

ARLEY HALL & GARDENS 01565 777 353 arleyhallandgardens.com We love… The spectacular gardens with their quercus illex columns, avenue of pleached lime trees and the furlong walk. Arley is a gloriously romantic wedding venue for grand weddings as well as intimate celebrations. It can be what you want it to be with breathtaking gardens, the stunning Cruck Barn, modern Olympia building or the characterful hall itself. A place of enormous charm, visitors are frequently struck by the warm and intimate atmosphere with a homely feel. The gardens, said to be amongst the finest in Britain, have been created over the last 250 years by successive generations of the same family. They boast a scintillating blend of historical and traditional design intertwined with modern ideas and additions. The double herbaceous border, for which the gardens are most celebrated, is thought to be the first border of its kind planted in England.
