Bridal party on a tractor trailer - Kent wedding venue

Welcome to our beautiful 16th century wedding venue, set in rural Kent, aside the Swale estuary.


Set in the picture-perfect landscape of wild meadows and wild wetland reserves of the Kent countryside, The Ferry House provides a beautiful backdrop for your rustic yet refined wedding day. With accommodation for 70+ and award-winning dining from our expansive locally-sourced, homegrown menus, we’re secluded but accessible, just 60 minutes from London.

NEW for 2026 weddings! The Ferry House has announced plans to build a beautiful new wedding barn in time for spring 2026.

Under the plans, The Ferry House will remain open for weddings until 30th September 2025, after which their diary will close for weddings until Sunday 12th April 2026. They are currently in the design phase of the development and are excited to be able to share plans by 10th January 2025, at the latest. Couples can secure their 2026 date now free of charge, paying a booking fee only once drawings for the new Barn have been confirmed.
