Creating memories to last a lifetime

At Stoke by Nayland we ’ ve been creating beautiful memories for couples for over 50 years. We’ll take you on your magical journey, planning your dream wedding day.

Nestling in 300 acres, within the stunning Dedham Vale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, our award-winning versatile venue provides a picture-perfect backdrop to your special day, with panoramic views in an idyllic, tranquil location, for every style of celebration.

It all Began in 1948

Sowing the seeds of love

This idyllic venue is the result of a captivating love story between Bill and Devora Peake, whose romance blossomed after the war, together with their passion for farming, conservation and Constable Country

Their loving partnership nurtured the surrounding fruit farms and developed the golf courses and, years later, generations of the family continue their legacy, transforming it into the multi-award-winning, eco-friendly resort that it is today.
