Wedding Venue in Kent Chapel House Estate Wins Gold at the Beautiful South Awards

Chapel House Estate is proud to announce that it has been awarded Gold - Wedding Venue of the Year at the Beautiful South Awards for Excellence 2025/2026, recognising outstanding tourism and hospitality businesses across the South East.

The awards ceremony, held last night, celebrates excellence in customer experience, innovation and quality across the region. Securing Gold places Chapel House Estate among the very best wedding venues in the South, a particularly notable achievement for an independently owned, family-run estate that has been welcoming weddings for just three years.

This latest accolade builds on the estate’s strong awards history, having also secured Gold - Wedding Venue of the Year in the 2023/2024 awards, demonstrating consistent excellence and rapid growth within the region’s competitive wedding market.

Set within 35 acres of Kent countryside, Chapel House Estate has quickly established a reputation for its blend of historic charm, contemporary luxury, and sustainability through home-grown produce, local partnerships, and eco-friendly practices that preserve and enhance the estate. Offering bespoke weddings with multiple indoor and outdoor ceremony spaces, on-site accommodation and a highly personal approach, the venue has become a sought-after destination for couples looking for something both refined and relaxed.

The judging panel commended the estate for its attention to detail, strong sense of place and consistently high standards across the guest experience, recognising its ability to compete and excel alongside long-established venues across the South East.

In addition to its success as a wedding venue, Chapel House Estate’s on-site restaurant, number nine, was awarded Silver - Best Restaurant at the Beautiful South Awards for Excellence 2024/2025, highlighting the estate’s broader commitment to exceptional food and hospitality.

Caitlin, Estate Manager of Chapel House Estate, said:

These awards mark a significant milestone for Chapel House Estate, reinforcing its position as one of Kent’s leading wedding venues and showcasing the strength of an independently owned, family-run business delivering excellence across weddings, dining and hospitality.
