Situated in the beautiful cathedral city of Lincoln, our main office was originally built in 1888 as a family home.
The attractive wood panelled waiting room, containing a medieval tapestry, leads into a spacious entrance hall complete with superb stained glass door panels.
Our ceremony room is full of features. It is decorated with paintings of the city, and for its focal point has a magnificent fireplace.
The décor is in shades of burgundy and gold, and the general ambience of the room is enhanced with the use of several silk flower arrangements. It comfortably seats 40 guests.
French doors lead out to a colourful garden and patio area – ideal for photographs.
Apart from the stunning cathedral and castle set high on a hill in the historic Bailgate area of Lincoln - delightful for shopping – there is also the Brayford Pool waterside edged with pubs, hotels and restaurants.
