With most of our Hotel and Country Clubs boasting long, sweeping drives, join us this autumn and you'll be led to a place of real escapism.
Though they may be popular leisure destinations, our Country Clubs have a great reputation for making memories for any special occasion. Our Memory Maker at some of our Country Clubs across the UK tells us what's in store this season when you host your autumn event at a Marriott Country Club.
Beautiful backdrops
Autumn is the perfect season to showcase a celebration thanks to our Country Clubs' statement settings for stylish photos. The vast grounds in rural locations throughout the UK come alive in autumn, with the golden leaves on the trees creating a real spectacle.
You'll find stand-out buildings complementing autumn colour palettes at Delta Hotels St Pierre, with its Grade II listed on-site church, and at the oldest Marriott Hotel worldwide: the manor house at Breadsall Priory. If you're celebrating at the Jacobean-style Hanbury Manor, bring your guests outdoors for photos in the private walled gardens. They provide the perfect natural backdrop as the garden's autumn colours come to life.
Making memories
Romance is certainly in the air as the leaves fall from the trees. If you proposed over the summer months, why not host your engagement party in our Country Club events space and bring your family and friends together to celebrate your news?
We're always delighted to welcome back our happy couples. Many who celebrated their wedding day with us return in the autumn to raise a toast to their marriage and mark their anniversary in the place where they said, ‘I do'. Of course, autumn is also the peak of the baby boom! Ask our memory makers to use their event planning expertise and they'll put together the perfect baby shower for the mum-to-be.
Seasonal sporting
Every autumn, we welcome local sports teams for their end-of-season and pre-Christmas awards events and club presentations. Sports clubs choose us year after year to host their events, confident we know how to put on a celebration and provide the perfect place for guests to stay in a sports friendly setting.
As well as local groups, autumn is the peak of the football season, with major league teams touring the country as they play many games away from home. Our Country Clubs are popular with players visiting the area for matches and looking to stay overnight. Join us and you may even spot a sporting star!
Autumnal appetites
Whether you're relaxing after a private event or asking us to cater your celebration, you'll be spoilt for choice with our seasonal menus. They bring the top tempting tastes of the season straight to your table. Think indulgent pies, seasonal vegetables and, of course, pumpkin-inspired dishes.
Treat your guests to our seasonal events menus or ask our chefs to serve up romantic dinners for two. Join us in the Country Club restaurants by the side of our roaring log fires to warm up and wind down at the end of the day as you look out onto the autumnal grounds.
Extend your event
Host a celebration at a Marriott Country Club and you're already perfectly placed to experience full leisure and fitness facilities, an on-site restaurant, and rooms made for relaxation. Why not continue your celebration and stay with us for a few more days?
Perhaps that's a spa package for the mum-to-be after you've joined us for your baby shower? Maybe you fancy a round of golf before your awards evening takes place? Or you might just want to snatch an extra full night's sleep on your anniversary break?
No matter the occasion, join us at a Marriott Country Club and you'll be in the perfect setting for a seasonal celebration. Let our memory makers take care of you and your guests as you capture the essence of autumn at your event.
