The story
Tudor splendour and a church of your own on the West Swedish coast
Tjolöholms Slott was completed in 1904 in English Tudor style, commissioned by the Dickson family and designed to feel as though it belonged on the West Sussex coast rather than the West Swedish one. The result — red-brick battlements, pitched gables, formal kitchen gardens — is unlike any other castle in Scandinavia, and the grounds around it are considered some of the finest designed gardens in Sweden. The estate church, Slottskyrkan, sits a few minutes from the main castle and provides an intimate, vaulted setting for the ceremony itself.
The estate's hotel cottages, built the same year as the castle in traditional village style and refurnished with period pieces and modern comfort, mean the whole wedding party can sleep inside the grounds. Multiple cafés and restaurants across the estate handle everything from morning coffee to the formal dinner, and the flexibility the team offers — from intimate memorial services to full summer celebrations — suggests a place that has been tailoring events for over a century.
