DREAM WEDDING VENUE IN ONGAR, ESSEX

Within the historic setting of Blake Hall and its stunning private gardens, we are proud to offer you the beautifully restored 17th century barns and surrounding areas for your exclusive use for weddings, wedding receptions and other special occasions.

FULLY LICENSED 

Blake Hall is only offered for exclusive use and is licensed for civil ceremonies either inside the beautifully converted Hay Barn or outside under the canopy of the old Saddlery. Reception drinks can be enjoyed outside on the pretty lawn and terraces between the barns, or inside in the spacious Hay Barn. This leaves the Essex Barn for the wedding breakfast and evening entertainment.

For those who prefer a church wedding, the historic church of Bobbingworth is conveniently located at the end of the drive and offers a traditional and romantic setting for couples to say “I do.”
