Make Belair House in Dulwich a part of your fairy tale. The stunning symmetrical manor house is located in the leafy countryside surroundings of South East London. Whilst it feels like a rural retreat, this desirable wedding venue is located only fifteen minutes by train to London Bridge and Victoria, and the local West Dulwich station is within walking distance. With plenty of on-site and street parking also available, accessing the venue is easier than ever. Your guests will soon be nestled on the alfresco sun terrace of Belair House, a glass of champagne in hand overlooking the lush greenery of Belair Park.

The pearly white face of Belair House is the first draw, along with its eye-catching monochrome patio and the attractive arched window above the door. Enter in style to find the original regal spiral staircase, laden with florals, next to a decorative wedding sign introducing the couple. Standing here on the red sweeping carpet beneath the spotlight of the ornamental sky dome is a favourable photo location.

The venue’s events team take pride in the fact that all Belair House weddings are bespoke to your taste and style. Each function room has an understated, naturally bright interior to be filled with your bespoke decorations, florals and loved ones. You have the flexibility to personalise every element of the manor house to make it your own on your wedding day. There are also built-in bars on both levels of the house that can be used to host your celebratory drinks reception whilst the main function suite is turned over from ceremony to a banquet set up if you are occupying just one floor.

At Belair House, you have the luxury of being able to celebrate your marriage and reception all under one roof. As for catering, the team of expert Belair House chefs can create a range of delicious seasonal menus using only the finest ingredients. Choose from one of their tried and tested British, Indian, and Caribbean wedding menus, or work with the team to design a bespoke meal that matches your favourite cuisine and caters for all dietary requirements.

Lovely light rooms on the top floor, stunning views across the park, delicious canapés and fizz, and serenaded by young singers. A brilliant evening, and delightful location for a special occasion.

I got married here last summer and i was over the moon with how everything went. The planning process with the Event Manager Victoria was seamless - she couldn't be more helpful! On the Wedding Day everything went perfectly, the staff were attentive and friendly and the food was delicious! It's the perfect Wedding venue as the building is so beautiful and we were lucky enough to have our reception drinks outside in the garden as the sun was shinning- i would highly recommend this place to anyone :)

We chose Belair House as the reception venue for our recent wedding and we couldn't have chosen better. Belair is a stunning and historic country house but within half an hour of central London...perfect! From start to finish, we received a warm, friendly and professional service from the Events Team and the other teams at Belair House. It felt like a really personal experience - each staff member showed real enthusiasm and cared that our Special Day went just as we wanted it. And it did! They'd taken us step by step through the planning process, showing patience and calming our nerves. Then on The Big Day, they ensured that everything went smoothly...from decorations to toasts to shepherding guests. All we had to do was enjoy ourselves! Our guests were really impressed with the beautiful venue, the food and drink, and the DJ that Belair had recommended to us. We couldn't be happier with how everything went. We would 100 per cent recommend Belair House to make any special occasion truly magical!

Here for a dinner and dance for my friends wedding, the place was lovely.
Barbara D
What a beautiful house and gardens for a wedding. We could not thank the staff enough, they were very helpful and friendly. Would recommend holding any special occasion here.
Tina A
The venue was absolutely beautiful, the Christmas decoration were stunning and at night the venue was beautifully lit. The staff were superb and treated the host and the guests very well especially the manager Gabriell who went above and beyond to ensure that the event was catered, decorated and planned to the highest standard. The food and wine was amazing! The Caribbean menu was cooked, prepared and served to the highest possible standard. The service provided by all the staff was impeccable. The event planners were extremely helpful especially Paige who went above and beyond to ensure the event was executed to perfection. All the guests were happy, the music system and lighting throughout the venue was good. The drinks at the bar were reasonably priced. Overall a very enjoyable and successful event. Would highly recommend Belair House to anyone looking for a special venue for an event.

Polly M
We had our hearts set on Belair House for our wedding venue the moment we first walked through the door, and on the big day itself it did not disappoint. It is a wonderful house and full of character which made for a really memorable day and all our guests commented on how lovely it was. The day itself was even better than we'd hoped and events manager Laura was always on hand working to ensure things went smoothly. The food was very good and bar and restaurant staff extremely friendly and accommodating - particularly the night staff who were there til the party finished at 2am. Brilliant!
Katie F
From beginning to end it has been a real pleasure dealing with you all, and it was a huge relief to know that there was one part of the day that was in very safe hands indeed!. I cannot comment on food or drink, as we only held the ceremony there, but throughout the planning process and the day itself we were absolutely delighted with the efficient yet immensely personal, helpful and friendly service we received from the Events team. Thank you all!
Sandra J
Belair House was beautiful.
Jack S
Perfect wedding venue after marriage in college chapel.
Anna A
We had the most amazing intimate wedding ceremony at Belair House. The staff were very responsive and Elisha, the events coordinator, nailed event little request we had for the day. The venue looked beautiful and the food was amazing. Definitely recommend this venue for everything.
Natalie A
Had my wedding here back in August! The staff and events manager were amazing at helping us to have the perfect evening reception. I’m Constantly recommending to friends.
Evie J
We're still floating from the day and getting so many compliments about the venue. You all went above and beyond and I've been recommending Belair as a venue ever since. We wish we could do it all over again! Thank you again for everything. It was honestly so amazing having your support, experience and humour. We would have been lost without you.
Mini C
We used the upper ballroom to have our official ceremony at the end of May. It was a perfect venue. The setting and grounds of Belair House are just idylic so it's like getting married in a fairytale even when you are an older couple. We had a handfastening ceremony to celebrate the 25 years we had previously spent together. It also meant we could include the extra guests arriving in the evening. According to our guests, It was perfect, for many the best wedding they had ever attended. . The staff especially Gabriel and Paige couldn't do enough to help on the day. We can't recommend Belair House highly enough.
Jordan R
Beautiful venue lovely staff and great food!
Kaela D
It's a beautiful place, with lovely staff 5 Stars!
Holly S
We had our wedding reception here in September and the whole process with Belair House and their events management team was great! Always so accommodating to any queries and requests we had leading up to the day and allowed us to mostly get on with it and make the day our own as well as making sure that things ran smoothly! Very grateful to all there that helped make it so special! Only negative comment I can make is that they had to close, would have kept on celebrating forever!
A McDougall
This place truly deserves all the praise in the world. I had a late fall wedding and was very stressed and anxious the time leading up to it. The people at Belair House completely went above and beyond to calm my nerves and make sure that I would have my dream wedding. The mansion itself is just out of this world and made the perfect setting for my special day. I cannot even count how many times my guests would express how stunning this place was to me. Apart from location and the amazing staff, the day itself ran suspiciously smooth, which allowed me time to really focus on connecting with my husband and enjoying our special day to the fullest. Oh, I almost forgot to write about the food! The food was absolutely gorgeous. So much so that it became one of the main talking points among the guests in the evening haha, especially the slow braised blade of beef. You have to try it! I cannot thank Belair house enough for making my wedding day even more special than I could have ever imagined. I will never be able to sing their praises enough, and hope to have done them somewhat justice with my review. I highly recommend this place to anyone getting married. They will exceed your expectations!
Patricia A
The new management gave us first class service. They provided us with an excellent lunch and the staff were helpful, courteous and discreet. They efficiently catered to all our needs. They have refurbished and tastefully redecorated the interior bringing the beautiful Georgian Mansion back to life.
Spike M
The place was stunning. The staff were fantastic, what wonderful service. There are two areas for functions, one up stairs and the other on ground floor looking onto a park. With separate bars. There is parking for about twenty cars, also on street parking.
Norman M
It was a gorgeous place we enjoyed the very much.
Charlotte & Richard R
We recently had or wedding reception in Belair House in December 2016. It was absolutely amazing!! A beautiful venue, delicious food and the staff where all amazing! Nothing was to much trouble and they went out of their way to make sure us and our guests had a fantastic night. The venue was truly more than I could have ever wanted and I can't think of anywhere better I could've had my wedding.
Sangram R
Presentation and service were great! Located in a beautiful park makes it even more beautiful and nature’s surroundings gives it a elegant looks. Interiors are antique and beautifully looked after . This is a great venue especially for weddings. Thank you all for making our evening great!
Wanda C
We were absolutely delighted with everything and everybody. The staff were very friendly and professional throughout the planning and on the actual day. Their presence was discreet and faultless. There were a couple of glitches which were unconnected to them - they spotted what needed to be done and provided the perfect solution without any fuss (and without any of our guests knowing there had been any problem.) The setting was fabulous and the food was really top-notch. We felt as though the place belonged to us for the day. Thank you to everyone at Belair House for making our wedding day so wonderful!
Sophie N
A building that's speaks for itself, whilst providing a beautiful view of natural scenery.
Brenda K
I wanted to write about the extremely friendly, positive and professional experience from the Belair. The venue is stunning we had the ballroom on the first floor which had a lovely outlook from the balcony which was an added bonus with the good weather. I cannot fault the staff who were the most attentive, polite and helpful, nothing was too much trouble and everything was catered to our every need. Would highly recommend this venue for any other celebration.THANK YOU AGAIN!
Eve T
We got married here, service and reception. From the word go, the staff couldn't have been more friendly and helpful, making it a very special day. Venue, food and service were all magnificent. Thank-you to all the staff.
Sharon M
Atmospheric and perfect for a wedding reception.
Abigail L

Victor B
5 star - plush venue.
Gemma O
Very very intimate.. Beautiful setting and lovely experience
Catherine M
I chose Belair House because it happens to be near where I live. I met the Events Manager in advance of the special birthday party and found her exceptional in understanding my needs, in her professional approach, in her attention to detail, all this in the planning and what is better is that every detail was as she had arranged. The lunch was a huge success, the staff were really friendly, the food very generous portions. I highly recommend you chose BH and it will certainly be a memorable occasion.

Food and service was very good

This place is perfect for weddings and parties
Kristy Z
I had my wedding here a few weeks ago and everything was wonderful. I was so happy with how everything came together on the day. It's such a nice venue for London as it really feels like you are in the middle of the countryside but is really close to central London. It feels very spacious with the use of the ballroom and bar area upstairs and the big terrace off the ballroom enabled us to still be able to enjoy the nice weather. Everyone really enjoyed the food and service was good. I'd definitely recommend.
Denise B
Absolutely fabulous venue
John P
Our thanks to Paige and the Belair House team for making last Sunday's (2nd June 2019) UK celebration so good. Being able to hold the ceremony in sunshine, on the terrace, was a bonus and local celebrant, Deborah Hooper, made the occasion very special. This was especially so with the "blending of sands" substituting so well for the exchange of rings that had taken place in Australia. The three course wedding breakfast was excellent in both quality and timing (and everyone receiving their chosen meal without any queries). All the guests greatly enjoyed the event and those who had travelled from Australia were very appreciative of the historic location. The building is slightly tired but most guests felt this was part of the character. Access to the toilets, for disabled users its via an outside ramp.

Gorgeous hidden gem with lovely staff and delicious food
Sharon H
Beautiful venue, the bar staff were great serving quality and reasonably priced drinks, security were respectful and didn't rush us out at the end.
Anika A
Belair House was the perfect venue for our wedding. The house and grounds are beautiful and have everything you might need. The staff could not have been more friendly, helpful or amenable. I can highly recommend.
