Partygoers can be seen in the clip arriving by the coach-load to set up camp at Hill House in the tiny village of Saxlingham Nethergate in Norfolk. The venue is popular for stag dos and hen parties and can house 25 people for up to £9,100 per week, while luxury bell tents pitched in the grounds can swell numbers up to 200.
In the video, guests are seen partying, drinking and celebrating at a disco-style event at the 17th-century property.
