Tell us about Hylands Estate...
Hylands Estate, comprising of Hylands Park and Hylands House, has had a vast and varied history. Chelmsford City Council is the tenth owner of the now beautifully restored Hylands Estate.
Hylands was built around 1730, for Sir John Comyns; the original house was a red brick Queen Anne style mansion with approximately 400 acres of land. Now, in the 21st Century, Hylands Estate is a Grade II* listed mansion enjoyed by thousands of people who visit the park and use Hylands House as the wedding venue of their dreams, with the Grand Pavilion added in 2014, allowing for a sleek and contemporary feel for larger wedding parties.
What kind of weddings do you get at the venue?
We are proud of our ability to accommodate all ceremonies; ranging from an intimate ceremony of 80 guests to cultural ceremonies for 300 guests in the Grand Pavilion. Our ceremony spaces are simply perfect for both lavish and intimate ceremonies with family and friends.
For those wanting to have a wedding with up to 120 guests, your civil ceremony and wedding reception can take place in the ornate, historic rooms of Hylands House. For larger wedding parties of up to 300 guests, host your civil ceremony in our ornate Banqueting Room before progressing to the sleek and contemporary Grand Pavilion for your evening reception.
