The first thing you'll see
An open-air deck beneath a centuries-old cedar tree. The first thing guests see on arrival — and the space most hosts make their showstopper moment.
What makes it unique
The arrival moment
Positioned at the entrance to The Clementine's grounds, the Cedar Deck is the first thing guests encounter when they come through the gates — and it sets the tone immediately.
The showstopper canvas
More hosts create their most striking design installations here than anywhere else on the estate. The cedar's natural canopy provides an extraordinary frame for floral arches, suspended installations, and statement pieces.
The most photographed spot on the estate
A natural focal point for guests and photographers alike — the Cedar Deck appears in more event photographs from The Clementine than any other single location.
Where summer events become extraordinary

The Cedar Deck is an open-air deck positioned beneath a mature cedar tree that has stood for centuries within the Syon Park grounds. It sits at the entrance to The Clementine's private grounds — which means it's the first thing every guest encounters when they arrive, and the impression it creates before the main event has even begun is significant.
Most hosts make it their showstopper. The cedar's natural canopy provides an exceptional frame — elevated, sheltered, and surrounded by the estate's woodland — and florists and designers use it to create the most striking installation pieces of the day. Floral arches, suspended arrangements, statement lighting — the structure of the space makes ambitious design straightforward to execute and extraordinary to photograph.
It is, consistently, the most photographed location at The Clementine.
