Description
LIMEKILN is set against a backdrop of Sussex countryside and ancient woodland — from which the lodge takes its name — making it a fully private space for clients looking for an exclusive-use venue. The interior design is led by Red Deer; the creative studio behind Lina Stores and St John.
There’s a large dining space for 200 guests, a bar and lounge, plus two further spaces for private dining, partying, presentations or ceremonies, all centred around an open-air courtyard. A split-level Apartment can be used as a pre-party dressing area or meeting space.
Each room allows clients the freedom to choose a format that suits their requirements.
The lodge is within easy reach of London; just a 50-minute train ride from London Bridge, and 15-minute drive from Tunbridge Wells station.
Hosting everything from weddings and blowout parties, to team away days, creative showcases and product launches, LIMEKILN is a place to gather great people and create meaningful moments.

- RR&J27/12/2025November 2025November 2025We got married at Limekiln on the 1st of November 2025, and had the BEST day. From the first time we viewed the venue we knew it was the one, it has such a warm cosy yet modern vibe. When you view it in real life vs online it has even more of a wow factor. The interiors as well as the exteriors are stunning. We chose to get married in November as we wanted the cosy vibe that the Venue can offer with the open fires, but were so lucky with the weather as we had beautiful sunshine so the drinks recWe got married at Limekiln on the 1st of November 2025, and had the BEST day.

- KKhaas Events23/08/2025The experience was nothing short of exceptional.The experience was nothing short of exceptional.We had the privilege of styling a two-day wedding at LimeKiln last week, and the entire experience was nothing short of exceptional. From our initial visit earlier this year to the final moments of de-rig, the team extended such warmth and professionalism, an absolute pleasure from start to finish. The venue itself is immaculately kept, with spaces that are both architecturally elegant and impressively versatile. Every detail, from the layout to the finishes, feels thoughtful and intentional.

They really thought of everything when they designed the lodge for weddings and when you're outside you are surrounded by beautiful woods and fields. The best thing about LIMEKILN for us through was the team who work there. They were brilliant in the lead up to the big day, answering all our questions, helping us plan out how everything would work and working with us to add our personal touches.

Do we have to use your preferred suppliers, or can we bring our own?
We have a carefully curated list of recommended suppliers, from caterers to florists and wedding planners, all chosen because they share our style and ethos, but you're welcome to bring your own. We do ask that any suppliers decorating the beams in our halls are taken from our recommended list, to ensure the space is treated with care.
What are the decoration rules around confetti, candles or fireworks?
Confetti is welcome as long as it's made from fresh or dried flower petals, and while outdoor fireworks and sparklers aren't allowed due to our woodland setting, cold handheld cake sparklers inside are absolutely fine. Have something else in mind? Just ask - we'll always do our best to make it work.
Will we have a dedicated wedding producers?
Absolutely. We’ll be on hand throughout the planning process to help answer questions, guide you through the details and make everything feel as seamless as possible. We host two dedicated planning meetings, and we’re always happy to arrange catch-up calls along the way. For more intricate styling and supplier support, we’d be delighted to recommend one of our trusted wedding producers.
What happens if the weather is bad?
Our outdoor ceremony spaces — the South Lawn and ancient woodland — are available between April and September, weather permitting. If it rains, Alder Room is a wonderful alternative: a light, airy barn-like space with whitewashed beams, seating up to 180 for ceremonies.
How long do we have the lodge for, and when can suppliers access it?
You'll have access to the Apartment from 8am on the day of your wedding for getting ready. Our team will walk you through supplier access times, load-in windows, and clearing the lodge at your planning meetings.
Do you allow dogs?
Yes, dogs are welcome for the ceremony and drinks reception. Once the wedding breakfast begins, the team ask that they are takenoff the grounds.
Can we have a live band or DJ?
Yes. Our late-night lounge, the Green Club, is the heart of the party — opulent chandeliers, antique mirrored walls, and a floor-to-ceiling bay window that makes for a seriously special backdrop for live music. Speak with the team directly for full details on sound arrangements and any limits that apply.
Is the lodge fully accessible for guests with disabilities?
Yes — the lodge is accessible for guests with step-free access across the main spaces. Please note that The Apartment is located upstairs, which may affect accessibility for members of the wedding party using this space.
Do you have a space for getting ready on the morning of the wedding?
Yes, you’ll have access to our split-level apartment from 8am on the day of your event. It comfortably accommodates around 15 people and offers a relaxed space to get ready, along with a great vantage point to watch your guests arrive below.
Where do we stay on the wedding night?
LIMEKILN is a day and evening hire rather than an overnight stay, but we'd love to help you make the most of your time with us. We have a recommended accommodation list, we're surrounded by beautiful nearby Airbnbs and local stays.
