Venue Overview

Blackstock Estate, Grove Hill, Hellingly

A truly intimate country venue in beautiful Sussex, Blackstock Country Estate is a beautiful countryside wedding and events venue set in the rolling South Downs of Sussex. We host ceremonies, receptions and events in two cosy barns, surrounded by 70 acres of breathtaking estate. Rustic and rural, yet refined and romantic, we are surrounded by open meadows, bluebell woodland and peaceful lakes. Wild deer can be spotted on the grounds, among other wildlife roaming freely.

Description

The Perfect Venue For Your Perfect Day

Overlooking our grounds are two beautiful restored barns, The Tudor and The Granary. They can be hired separately, with access to the grounds, or taken together for exclusive use of the entire estate for your wedding.

Both barns are set amongst our 70 acres of scenic farmland and enjoy stunning views of the South Downs. Within, they are tastefully decorated and can be easily adjusted to suit your theme. Guests can easily stroll in and out, exploring the meadows and woods at their leisure, enjoying a drink on the patio areas under the stars or taking part in the festivities inside.

As well as providing the perfect venue to hold your reception, we are also licensed to hold civil partnership and wedding ceremonies for up to 180 of your guests.

Or if you would prefer to hold the ceremony elsewhere, with the reception at Blackstock Country Estate, we are conveniently located close to several historic churches and can happily make recommendations and help arrange transport to and from the venues.

If you have any special requirements for your ceremony, then let us know. We will endeavour to accommodate any wish that you may have to make your ceremony completely personal to you.

Just wanted to say a massive thank you to all the staff that were involved in making our wedding day so perfect! From planning to the catering and the actual day itself, we loved every minute and are so thankful to you all for all your time and hard work!

Love Hannah & Luke

On behalf of my HUSBAND & I, we would just like to say a huge thank you for helping us create the most perfect wedding day bespoke to us. Your whole team were so friendly - something that all of our guests commented on! And we really felt that no request or email (of which there were many!) was …

dismissed or belittled.

The food was incredible with so many of our guests agreeing that it was better than restaurant standard! I don’t think there was a single mouthful left on any plate.

Gill and Andre helped us to feel so relaxed in what was a very stressful build up and Sarah and Florian were incredible on the day, making sure that everything went seamlessly. Karen always made us feel welcome and important and I really hope that we can stay in touch for a long time to come. We feel like part of the Blackstock family!

We have genuinely fallen in love with Blackstock and you definitely haven’t seen the last of us! We just wish we could do our whole day all over again.

Love,
Mr & Mrs Gladwish

We chose Blackstock for our November wedding and it was the most amazing experience from start to finish. Paul (Managing Director), Gill (Wedding Coordinator) and all the staff are so welcoming and nothing is too much trouble. From our first visit until the morning after the wedding everything we …

wanted was accommodated. The feedback from our family and friends has been very complimentary with everyone saying what a beautiful venue, amazing food and such lovely staff. If you want a magical wedding then Blackstock is the place.

We had the most amazing day at Blackstock for our Wedding on Saturday 13th October 2018. It went perfectly and the staff couldn’t do enough to help. Our guest commented that it was the best wedding food they had ever had!!
We could not recommend Blackstock highly enough, it is worth everything …

you pay!!
It was such a magical day!

On behalf of Fran and myself, may we thank you most sincerely for the absolutely perfect organisation and attention to even the smallest detail of our wedding at Blackstock. It exceeded our expectations in every respect, nothing was overlooked or missed, altogether making it a more than memorable …

occasion for our wedding. The staff in attendance were always ready and on hand to do whatever was required. We have nothing but praise for the Blackstock organization in their understanding and empathy for couples on their Wedding day.
