Kent Wedding Awards 2025: Wedding Venue Of The Year Winner
Nestled in the heart of the Kent countryside beside the Swale estuary and just 60 minutes from London, The Harty Estate offers a breathtaking setting for your country wedding. Surrounded by nature reserves and rolling farmland, this enchanting 16th-century venue boasts panoramic waterside views and an unrivalled atmosphere for your big day.
From April 2026, The Harty Estate has become an exclusive wedding and events venue with the launch of our brand-new Spring Barn, a stunning space featuring a rare oak 'Hammerbeam' frame and cathedral-like ceiling details. With unobstructed views over the estuary, the Spring Barn offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern elegance, making it an ideal backdrop for your ceremony, wedding breakfast and evening reception.
We pride ourselves on creating weddings as unique as our couples, offering flexibility to suit your needs. Whether you're planning an intimate gathering for 2-30 guests, a relaxed twilight ceremony, or a full-day celebration, we offer the perfect space for your dream day. For those seeking an extended experience, our multiday wedding packages include night-before celebrations at The Harty Estate or nearby Mocketts Farm Cottages, along with a full day of wedding festivities at The Harty Estate.
Start your day in style with access to our beautiful Coach Lounge or Garden Lodge, nestled in the tranquil Kitchen Garden. The Garden Lodge offers a serene environment with cosy seating areas, three makeup stations, a dedicated dressing space, and plenty of picture-perfect spots for capturing your special moments.
Exchange your vows with up to 200 guests under the Oak Gazebo, overlooking the Swale estuary, surrounded by the beauty of nature. Alternatively tie the knot in the fairy-lit Hop Barn, decorated with hops and featuring French doors that lead to a beautiful terrace. Or you could say 'I do' in the new Spring Barn with up to 260 guests.
Host your wedding breakfast in the Hop Barn for up to 70 guests or choose the Spring Barn to host your meal for up to 260 guests, flooded with natural light and offering stunning waterside views. Whichever space you choose, you'll enjoy our exceptional menus, featuring fresh produce from our Kitchen Garden, beef from our family farm, and game from the Harty estate.
Our full day packages also include a complimentary night in your choice of honeymoon suite, with ten additional rooms available for your guests to book. Our nearby Mocketts Farm Cottages can host up to 53 guests, providing the perfect opportunity for an extended celebration over multiple days.
Finally, enhance your special day with a range of optional extras, from a fire pit for toasting marshmallows to a photobooth, audio guestbook, and vintage tractor arrival. Our expert wedding planners will be with you every step of the way to ensure your day is flawless.
