Haldon Belvedere (Lawrence Castle)

The feel

This much sought after civil weddings and holiday apartment venue in Devon is located high on Haldon Hill and stands in 5 acres of beautiful woodland in the heart of the Devonshire countryside some 6 miles from the cathedral city of Exeter. From its vantage-point, panoramic views extending to Dartmoor, Exmoor, the South Hams, the River Exe valley and its estuary can be seen. On a really clear day, the Isles of Purbeck and Portland Bill in Dorset are visible and some say even Wales.

The Ball Room where the ceremony takes place is bright and airy with a high ceiling and large gothic style windows and has Baroque plasterwork. The room comfortably seats up to 50 guests. After the ceremony,  champagne and canapés can be served in the Lawrence Room while your photographer takes full advantage of the many opportunities offered by the building and its surroundings to create those special memories.

We offer a range of canapé and finger buffets specifically designed to complement your drinks. Only food supplied by our caterers can be consumed both inside and outside the Belvedere. and we recommend that provisional catering is booked well in advance.
