Aldwick, West Sussex
The Estate & Spaces.
Twelve acres of Sussex countryside, four remarkable event spaces, and three centuries of history. Evermore Estate is the kind of place that stays with you long after the last dance.
The Estate
A place apart.
Evermore Estate has stood on this gentle rise above Aldwick Bay since 1742. The original manor house — now the site of our Great Hall — has been home to three families, a wartime convalescent home, and for the past thirty years, some of the most beautiful weddings in the south of England.
Our gardens were redesigned in the 1880s by the landscape architect Thomas Peel, who added the walled kitchen garden, the three-acre lake, and the Victorian Orangery that remains the heart of the estate today.
We care deeply about this place. Every couple who marries here becomes part of its story.
