Just thirty minutes from London but feels a million miles away, Botleys Mansion is a Surrey wedding house with a mysterious royal past and is exclusively yours for 24 hours. Your first glimpse of this Palladian house is as you turn onto the leafy private driveway. Immediately, you’re in awe of its presence and can’t wait to get inside. A classic stone staircase leads you up to the hall, where a glittering chandelier lights up the tall ceiling.

Botleys Mansion has limited availability dry-hire dates for 2023 currently available.

Facilities and Capacity

With capacities ranging from 60 to 500 across various rooms in the house, there are multiple spaces for your wedding ceremony and reception.

The first room to catch your eye is the Green Room; intimate and romantic; you will fall in love with the pastel tones and golden chandeliers; this space is perfect for ceremonies up to 130.

If you’re looking for something a little more contemporary, the glass-roofed Atrium can host up to 288 guests. Complimented by a sweeping staircase and 7 chandeliers, this room lends itself to the most stylish of celebrations.

Outside of the mansion, the parkland views make the perfect backdrop for your summer nuptials, followed by bottomless Pimms or Prosecco around the fountain whilst you have your photographs taken.

Cut above the rest !

I can’t even begin to recommend botleys enough. From the moment we first views botleys mansion we fell in love with every part of it and to top it off the service we received was impeccable. They supported us throughout our covid nightmare and made what was a very daunting and stressful period for engaged couples easier. The staff on the day were attentive and welcoming and we just had the most amazing day. There should be no doubt at all as to whether botleys is the place to go for. Thank you Bijou team for everything x

Very Positive Experience and Happy Memories

We got married at Botleys Mansion in May 2023 and would happily recommend them to future couples. The venue is stunning and we were lucky enough to get married in the atrium on a very sunny day and then use the front of the mansion for drinks and canapés.
The planning process is smooth and seamless and they make sure that not detail is forgotten And the on the day wedding management and staff were great!

Overall we both had such a special day and will always hold fond memories of botleys - looking forward to coming back and visit the grounds on our first anniversary next year :)

Botleys we’re amazing for our wedding day! Absolutely couldn’t do enough for us, from planning tools they have in place, to personal wedding planner to on the all the people looking after us. The food was incredible everyone couldn’t stop talking about it!! Highly recommend Botleys as a wedding venue. Only wish I could do it all again there and with all the great people. Shout out to Maddie, Sarah, Emma and Dan who made our day so special!!

AmaZing venue, don’t let them rush you

Stunning venue, excellent service but there was one lady who rushed me so much that I forgot lots of different things and we couldn’t even finish my hair- very disappointed but the rest of the day made up for it!

Reassuring and genuine team, set in a stunning venue

Right the way through from enquiring about Botleys, until the morning after the wedding, we were given such genuinely friendly service and attention. It helped so much to have a team who we felt were just as excited as we were about our wedding. We never felt throughout the whole experience that we were just another wedding to them.

On the day, being greeted my Maxine outside, almost all of my apprehension went away. She gave me the most reassuring, genuine and excited welcome, which was the start of how consistently looked after we felt through the whole day. I never felt bothered by staff but completely relaxed that everything was being thought of according the planner and meetings we'd had, and we could just be guided to where we needed to be. They had an amazing knack of always being there when we needed them, I can only apologise for not remembering the manager in the evenings name as I was having too much fun and everything was still going perfectly.

I would fully recommend the sparkly dance floor in the evening, it was like dancing under the stars where it reflected on the atrium roof.

The food was brilliant and complimented on by our guests (in particular the croque monsieur canapé.) The breakfast was a little underwhelming for the price but it did not change the experience or would have changed our mind on picking Botleys.

Overall we can’t thank Botleys enough for making the whole experience incredibly special for us and our families. It is a stunning venue but the people involved in the lead up and the day really make it complete.

Great venue not so great service

We got married here in July 2022 and although the venue is absolutely stunning unfortunately the wedding team is not so great to work with.

We took the venue on a dry hire basis and were messed about a lot with the terms and conditions of our booking and with things that were or were not included. Nobody seemed to know what they were doing, one person would tell us one thing, only to be messaged on the messaging system after to be told that, that information was incorrect, we were given lots of misinformation which was very stressful during the planning of our wedding.

I really hope that the whole team are aware now of how dry hire works and what is included and what is not included to make it easier and less stressful for future couples.

Amazing day!

We are finally coming down from the massive high of this weekend! Thank you so much to the whole Botleys team for helping us to have the most amazing day! The whole day was so stress-free and everything went so well.

The waiting and bar staff were amazing and couldn’t do enough for us. The venue managers were so helpful without being intrusive at all and we really appreciated them being on hand all day.

We’ve had so many comments about how beautiful the venue was and especially how good the food was which means so much to us, so thank you to the kitchen staff for that!

It was just the best day we could have asked for!

The most perfect wedding venue

To all at Bijou
We just wanted to take a moment to thank you so much for our wedding day on Thursday.
The whole day ran so smoothly, it really was a dream come true.
Maddie and Anne have been fantastic throughout the planning process.
Nothing was too much trouble, including all the last minute changes after the planner was locked. Thank you so much.
To the lovely ladies ( I’m so sorry the nerves of the morning have made me forgot names) who met me in the reception and were constantly checking every detail was perfect, as a bride could not have asked for anything more.
And a special mention to Guy. You met us when we first viewed Botleys Mansion and were the last person I spoke to on the wedding day. You are a true gentleman and the day could not have gone as it did without you. We cannot thank you enough. You are a credit to a Botleys mansion.
The food and wine were fantastic and all bar and waiting staff were great. All of our guests were blown away by the venue and day.

Dreams come true

Being a bride and groom during a pandemic, meant we had to postpone our abroad Croatian wedding twice and instead had to decide, quite last minute, to have an at home wedding. Our two year wedding plans all changed and we were worried that no at home wedding would be able to compare with our planned big day abroad.

How wrong we could be! The staff at Botley ensured that our dream wedding day was still made possible and was all we could have hoped and dreamed of. The wedding venue is stunning and offers a variety of spaces to use throughout the day to keep everyone busy. There was a space for everyone and something that got everyone talking. The staff at Botley ensure that everything runs smoothly and the day flows throughout.

From our initial visit, with the incredibly friendly and reassuring Dan, to the planning process with Maddie and her team, to the actual wedding day where Rachel, Dan and Emma lead the team, throughout the whole process, we were supported and guided. We felt reassured and looked after. All our requests and details for the day were noted and ensured to be carried out on the day without a hitch. We felt staff genuinely cared about our day and wanted to get it right for us.

We had a fantastic time at our taster day and we were blown away by the delicious variety of food. Incredibly, the team were able to also blow away over 100 of our guests with their delicious food on the day and it was certainly something all our guests talked about. We loved to see everyone's empty plates! The food was a massive selling point for us!

We would highly recommend this venue to any bride and groom, whilst it isn't the cheapest venue it is certainly one which will deliver on the day and will provide you with everything you need to have a memorable and unforgettable day. We can't thank the team enough for all they did for us. Every member of staff looked after our guests and ourselves with promptness, politeness and care. We are truly grateful for all their hard work and dedication making us both feel special on the day. We can't thank them all enough!

Thank you team!

Every detail was 100 percent!

I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you so much for all that you did for us and the efforts you put into making our wedding a special day.
People couldn't praise us enough for how everything turned out. All the details like the flowers and the food was amazing. The cake was just fantastic. Every detail was 100% and the bijou team were so professional.


As for Dan and Guy, they were just fantastic. Dan was just amazing on the day. Everyone had a good thing to say about him. He is an amazing young man and he stepped out of his way to make sure every detail was executed.

So on behalf of myself, my wife Eileen, my family and friends, I thank you from the bottom of my heart, and I would definitely recommend you in the future to friends for any special occasion.

The food was delicious!

As you know, we took a while to commit to Botleys, but we are both so glad we decided to not let our worries take over, because there really was nothing to worry about. Running towards the end of the planning process, Jennifer was great in prompting and nudging to get everything done and updated, despite our IT deficiencies! On the day, Lisa, Guy, and Dan were all amazing. I’m not going to list all the things that are noteworthy but trust me when I say all 3 of them were everything we needed and made the day go so smoothly. All the rest of the staff were equally great, so please do pass our thanks on to all the wait staff and bar tenders. And pass on our thanks especially to the chefs, the food was delicious!

The staff worked tirelessly...

Thank you so soooooo much to everyone that helped make our day go perfectly. From the very beginning of the day the staff were on hand to help and nothing was too much. The waiters/waitresses were absolutely amazing and so professional. My aim was to have the wedding of my dreams and you all ensured that dream came true. My guests all commented on how spectacular the venue and the staff were on the day. Myself and Martin are truly grateful for everything you done for us, we will never forget our magical wedding day and we thank you ALL from the bottom of our hearts. The staff worked tirelessly before hand to ensure everything was in place and everything ran smoothly. Words cannot describe how incredible our wedding day was and you all made that happen. Thank you very very much.
