Killerton House was the much-loved family home for generations of the Acland family, and happy host to many events and celebrations.
The house and garden are stunningly set in East Devon. Easy accessible, they can now play the perfect host for your wedding reception.

Killerton House was re-built in 1777–79 for Sir Thomas Acland, 7th Baronet. The Aclands chose to alter and expand the existing house to suit their needs. Today, Killerton retains the delightful atmosphere of a warm and welcoming family home in a beautiful parkland surrounding.
The garden sits on a south-facing slope with far-reaching views towards Dartmoor, Woodbury Common and the Exe estuary. It features a vast array of interest throughout the seasons including magnificent rhododendrons and magnolias, stunning herbaceous borders and a collection of rare trees.
