GATHERINGS
FALL IN LOVE WITH MASTER BUILDER'S WEDDINGS
We believe every love story deserves a proper celebration - and when it comes to planning unforgettable parties, we’re all in.
Our historic house sits right on the banks of the Beaulieu River, with woodland walks at the door, boats bobbing on the water, and more than a few stories in the walls. With exclusive hire available, 26 rooms (and a fab cottage) to sleep your favourite people, and the freedom to shape the day your way - this is a blank canvas with a whole lot of character.
From riverside ceremonies to garden cocktails and feasts, we’ll help you bring it all to life. And with a pub on site (shout out to Henry’s) and plenty of cosy corners for your crew, it’s more than just a wedding - it’s a weekend to remember.
Our team are wedding-obsessed, detail-driven, and fully up for anything - whether you’re at the Pinterest stage, ready to visit, or just dreaming it all up. Drop us a line and let’s get planning. The forest is calling...

"We are just so in love with the day we had and your beautiful venue."
From the morning set up (which I had the pleasure to watch from the bedroom window!), to the evening fire pits, it was just all so magical and so perfect. Our guests told us how much they appreciated how chilled out the day was - we had four people tell us it was the best wedding they'd ever been to! I know the planning and work involved in coordinating a day of 80 people, and it is no mean feat, but somehow you all made it seem effortless and so relaxed (exactly the vibe we were after).

"It really was the best day of our lives!"
This was largely down to you Lizzie and your meticulous planning, and the incredible venue. I cannot tell you the amount of people who have said that it was the best wedding that they've ever been to and couldn't believe how beautiful the location was. I couldn't agree more, it was simply stunning!
Sophie & Tom
"This one-of-a-kind venue is a real showstopper, and all our guests were blown away by the stunning views."
Our indoor ceremony turned out perfectly—creating a warm, intimate atmosphere that felt really special. The food was exceptional (even our Michelin-starred chef guest commented on the quality!), and the whole team managed a seamless turnaround for the evening celebrations, letting us party late into the night.
The atmosphere throughout the day was incredible, thanks to the amazing Master Builders team and how smoothly they worked with all our suppliers. Everything ran perfectly, and we honestly couldn’t be happier.
Sam & Lucy
"The venue itself is stunning"
The venue itself is stunning, with beautiful views over the river and Bucklers Hard, big fireplaces and lounge chairs - the perfect cosy, charming, and warm setting for a wedding. The rooms were lovely, the honeymoon suite was gorgeous, and the food was fantastic, all of our guests commented on how great it was. Room turnarounds were seamless, and the whole day flowed perfectly.
Thank you so much to Lizzie and the whole team for looking after us so well and making our day so special. You truly have a gem of a venue and an amazing team. I couldn’t recommend The Master Builders House more highly for anyone looking for an amazing wedding venue.
