Candlelight Concert | Simply Strings

13 Feb 2026 19:00 - 21:00

Sink into the season of love with a night at the movies brought to you by Simply Strings. Come along for an intimate evening of music by candlelight, as the Simply Strings trio perform here at Wentworth Woodhouse this Valentine’s weekend.

Set in the historic State Dining Room, this performance will be a selection of pieces from the big screen. Enjoy a glass of fizz on arrival, followed by two 40-minute performances and an interval in the Library Lounge for a drink or light refreshments.

A perfect night for lovers of live classical music, and the charm of Wentworth Woodhouse. 

Three musicians perform outdoors beside an ornate spiral staircase, playing cello and violins. They wear dark clothing and stand or sit among leafy plants, with sunlight filtering through the trees. The black‑and‑white image captures a calm, elegant atmosphere.

An ornate historic room with pale walls, decorative plasterwork on the ceiling, and a central chandelier. Large painted murals and a framed portrait adorn the walls, set between carved doorframes and dark wooden doors. Tall windows on the left let in soft natural light, illuminating the wide, empty carpeted floor. Black‑and‑white photo of an old-fashioned bedroom with a large four‑poster bed framed by two ornate columns. Opposite the bed is a decorative fireplace with a metal fireguard, and a framed portrait hanging above it. The room has patterned wallpaper, high ceilings with detailed cornicing, and an overall historic, slightly worn appearance. An elegant historic room with ornate plasterwork on the ceiling, tall windows draped with gold curtains, and a large decorative mirror between them. A marble fireplace with carved detailing sits on the right wall beneath a framed portrait. The room has plain painted walls and a wide wooden floor. White snowdrops bloom across a woodland floor covered in fallen leaves, with a group of people standing blurred in the background among tall trees. The focus is on the delicate flowers in the foreground, creating a soft contrast between the sharp details of the snowdrops and the out-of-focus figures behind them. A stone terrace with a classical statue and ornate urn overlooks a vast, neatly striped lawn. The landscape stretches into the distance with clusters of trees, rolling hills and a pale blue sky with scattered clouds. Provide your feedback on BizChat
