offers a variety of accommodation, including a
luxurious Honeymoon Suite and a selection of menus
created using some of the finest ingredients the
Garden of England has to offer. Port Lympne has been voted the ‘something different’
Kent wedding venue of the year in 2016, 2017 and
2018 , so if you’re looking for a wedding that is
something out of the ordinary (and yet still beautifully
