With its magnificent setting in 300 acres of picturesque, rolling Suffolk countryside, a beautifully appointed hotel and superb facilities, The Stoke by Nayland Hotel, Golf & Spa provides one of the most idyllic venues for weddings and functions in East Anglia.

Our main banqueting room, the exquisite Devora Suite, which is named after the Hotel's founder, enjoys superb views over the lake and Constable Country, and can accommodate up to 350 guests for a wedding or dinner. It has a spacious adjoining bar and can open out onto both a large balcony to the south and an expansive private terrace to the south west which can accommodate up to 200 guests for a BBQ or pre-dinner drinks – a perfect setting for panoramic wedding photographs with an idyllic backdrop of the lake and fairways.

Four other suites with flexible configuration can cater for smaller weddings and functions, serviced by either a satellite bar or the Constable Bar. All our banqueting rooms are fully air-conditioned with natural daylight, stunning views and private terraces.

The Hotel  holds a licence for Civil Marriage Ceremonies and with the assistance of an experienced and professional team our tailor-made, comprehensive wedding service is second to none. From the welcome drinks through to the departure of the bride and groom every aspect of your wedding will be treated with care and precision. All you are required to do is relax and enjoy your day, along with the superb cuisine, fine wines and excellent service which are the hallmarks of the Stoke by Nayland Hotel, Golf & Spa.

At the end of a perfect day our beautifully appointed Hotel offers you superb en-suite accommodation in a unique setting, including two luxury bridal suites. You can pamper yourself before or after the big event with a sauna or swim in our magnificent pool, a workout in the gym or a relaxing massage in Peake Spa. You could also play a round of golf on one of our two championship courses. All bedrooms have satellite TV, complimentary WiFi, are furnished to a high standard, and enjoy wonderful views over the lake and fairways.

Testimonials.

Just a short, official letter to congratulate yourself and senior function staff on making our wedding reception such a success. Throughout the day many of our guests commented on the quality of the food, the excellent service and general organisation of the day. You could see how much of a success the day had been, thanks to a combination of a great venue and hardworking staff members. I would not hesitate in recommending your venue to friends and family in the future.

Shane & Emily Constable - Colchester

It gives us great pleasure to write to formally thank both you and the hotel in general for looking after us so well at our wonderful wedding and reception held there. We had such an amazing day that we just didn’t want it to end. Many of our guests commented to us either on the day or afterwards how impressed they also were with the hotel and staff.

Strangely since the wedding we seem to have bumped into several people who are going to weddings at the hotel - we’ve been able to tell them they should expect to have a fantastic time. We would not hesitate to recommend the hotel to anyone looking for a venue for a wedding or any other event.
