Glewstone Court Country House
A wedding at Glewstone isn’t just beautiful, it feels different, like you’ve been let in on a very good secret.
Maybe it’s the old cedar tree that’s watched over hundreds of vows. Or the way guests seem to settle in and exhale, drink in hand, as the sun dips behind the Wye Valley. It could be the laughter around the the building and manicured grounds heard late into the night, or the moment a father-of-the-bride, glassy-eyed and half-lost in memory, says “You’ve thought of everything.”
We’re known for that! For making it yours. For noticing the quiet stuff. For guiding without taking over.
A Little Bit About Us
We’re a family-run, independent venue in Ross-on-Wye, set within a Grade II listed Georgian country house manor, surrounded by countryside and overlooking the Brecon Beacons. Over the years, we’ve hosted hundreds of weddings, but no two have ever felt the same, and that’s something we value.
Glewstone Court recently won Best Historic Wedding Venue in the West Midlands (2025) at The Wedding Industry Awards, and we’ve held the AA’s highest accolade for quality and service for eight years in a row. But to be honest? The real reward is seeing our couples still dropping in months later, glowing with memories of their special day flooding back.
What It’s Like To Work With Us
From the moment you step through the front door, it’s about you. We’ll sit down with you, get to know your story, your vision and your non-negotiables!
We’ll walk you through the house whilst showing you how the day might unfold, how the courtyard might feel at golden hour, how we can give you a breather between ceremony and speeches or how to make sure you get a moment just the two of you.
Our team, including your dedicated wedding coordinator Charles, is calm, kind, and ruthlessly prepared. We’re creative problem-solvers, early risers, and yes, we’ve always got a safety pin.
Multi-Day Hire: Extend the celebrations!
Some couples book an extra day. Not because it’s needed, but because it’s magic. A welcome supper the night before, last-minute table plan tweaks, breakfast in robes the next morning. Guests bond. Nerves melt. It becomes less of a blur and more of a story you’ll tell forever.
We’ll never push or rush or standardise - that’s just not us. Glewstone is a place to be yourself, surrounded by the people you love, held by a team that quietly has your back.
Let’s plan something unforgettable!
A magical Winter wedding in December - candles, fairy lights, garlands, sparkling Christmas trees, the smell of mulled wine, open fires, a wonderful atmosphere and everyone having a fabulous festive day - truly happy guests!
Enjoy every second of the whole experience, make sure it is a fun time not a stressful time! On your wedding day soak up all the love, joy and happiness and make sure you get a moment for yourselves to feel all the emotion of the day together.
