Experience

Style isn’t just a standard,  it’s a vibe that never goes out of fashion.

A great dining experience should leave more than a great taste in your mouth. That’s why our partner Florentina Events combine the best flavours with first-class customer service to deliver outstanding dining experiences.

Experience the gastronomic excellence reflected in our menus, with each dish designed with your style and theme in mind. From weddings through to corporate events, birthdays, anniversaries and seasonal holidays, our food will be tailored to you, your guests and your occasion. Florentina Events believes that the key to great service is to be attentive yet unobtrusive. Our professional waiting team complement any occasion with a warm and friendly approach, so every guest can feel relaxed and welcome.

Our luxury shepherd’s cabins and glamping pods offer the perfect on-site accommodation for couples, family, and guests. Stylish, cosy, and fully equipped, they allow you to extend your celebration with a peaceful overnight stay in the Norfolk countryside. Whether you're hosting a wedding or private event, these charming spaces mean no late-night travel, just a short stroll from the party to your own serene retreat. It's the perfect way to keep your loved ones close and make your experience even more memorable.

Our beautiful venue sits right next to the award‑winning Banham Zoological Gardens, giving you the rare chance to weave wildlife into your wedding day or event. Imagine stealing away for a private giraffe‑feeding session, capturing magical moments posing with penguins among friends, or even holding parts of your ceremony within the zoo grounds itself. It’s an unforgettable opportunity to add a playful and distinctive twist to your celebration, a memory your guests will be talking about long after the last dance. 

We have an extensive list of suppliers and services that come highly recommended. All are very talented, have experience of working here at Applewood Hall so have first-hand knowledge of our set-up and will help to capture your vision to create the perfect day.
