Chilston Park Hotel wedding photography and film
Chilston Park Hotel is a beautiful wedding venue. Watch real wedding films from Chilston Park Hotel by Big Day Productions.
We've filmed at some beautiful hotels across Kent, but Chilston Park has a quality of light and grandeur that genuinely stops you mid-setup. The sweeping parkland, the rich interiors, the sense that this place has seen centuries of stories. It makes our job feel less like work and more like capturing something that was always meant to be remembered.
Getting to Chilston Park Hotel
The nearest train station is Lenham, about 1.5 miles from Chilston Park. Trains run from London Victoria and Ashford International, making it straightforward to reach from most parts of the UK. A short taxi from Lenham station will get you to the hotel in minutes. If you're flying in, Gatwick Airport is your best bet, roughly 45 miles away. Heathrow is also manageable but adds extra journey time, so plan accordingly. Chilston Park has good onsite parking, so driving guests are well catered for. Just allow extra time on the country lanes approaching the hotel. For the evening, book your taxi home in advance. Local firms in Maidstone and Lenham get busy on weekends, so sort this before the big day.
