Description

Midelney Manor is a completely unique and romantic Elizabethan manor house set in the heart of the Somerset countryside. A magical setting for any wedding or celebration. Stepping out of the house and into the 17th Century walled garden definitely has the “wow” factor and makes an idyllic setting for drinks and canapés. Beyond this garden lie several others including the Round Garden, which is perfect for a large marquee or tipi. Ancient oak trees, flower filled borders and well thought out planting create a beautiful English country garden. Set in the heart of the garden lies the beautiful 18th Century Potting Shed. This huge barn has lovely old stonework and ancient beams covered in 1920’s flower show prize cards. It has many uses including, a bar lounge, ceremony or reception space. There is a fabulous rustic bar with chesterfield sofas, eclectic furniture, Persian rugs and some old Cely Trevilian portraits on the wall!

An unforgettable day!

We had the most amazing wedding at Midelney Manor. Alice was an absolute dream to work alongside and was genuinely invested in making our day the best it could be. Alice was always at the end of the phone, was full of suggestions and liaised with our suppliers proactively and effectively, helping to take the load off us where possible. Midelney Manor has several areas you can choose to hold your ceremony with an absolutely beautiful wet weather location which is full of character and won’t feel like a secondary option if the weather isn’t kind to you. Then it’s just a hop, skip and a jump to your drinks reception and wedding breakfast in the grounds of the manor! In the run up, our weather was looking unpredictable but Alice was checking every weather app and doing everything in her power to ensure we could have the day as planned as much as possible. The morning of, Alice was coordinating with all our suppliers allowing us to be able to enjoy the morning without stressing, we knew that our day was in safe hands and any decisions she made due to weather would have been carefully considered. All our guests couldn’t stop raving about how beautiful the venue was! If you want a really personal wedding experience in a venue that will give you carte blanche and complete flexibility to do what you want, Midelney Manor is for you. We had a truly unforgettable wedding, we are so glad we chose Midelney Manor and will be forever grateful for Alice’s experience and support throughout. Thank you so much Alice!

Our wedding at Midelney Manor was nothing short of magical. From the moment we stepped onto the grounds, we knew this historic manor would be the perfect backdrop for our special day. The charm and elegance of the venue exceeded all of our expectations, with its stunning gardens, enchanting woodlands, and the character-filled interiors that created a sense of timeless beauty. Alice was absolutely incredible. From the planning stages to the big day, she was attentive, professional, and so warm-hearted. Alice went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect, seamlessly blending our vision with her expertise. The manor’s flexible and personalised approach allowed us to create a day that truly felt like ours, full of unique touches and unforgettable moments. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the picturesque setting, from the romantic ceremony in the woodland to the reception in the gardens and marquee. The flow of the day was flawless, and the manor provided the perfect balance of intimacy and grandeur, making everyone feel part of something truly special. If you’re looking for a wedding venue that combines historic charm, impeccable service, and a magical atmosphere, look no further than Midelney Manor. Our wedding day felt like a fairy tale come to life, and we are forever grateful to Alice for helping us create memories we will cherish forever. Jade & Mike

Gorgeous, english garden Wedding

I cannot express how perfect Midelney Manor is as a wedding venue. Myself and my (now) husband were looking to create a barn, rustic, relaxed feeling for our wedding. Midelney Manor is a hidden little gem that we were fortunate enough to find and I am so thankful that we did! From the first meeting with Alice and seeing her gorgeous home, we immediately fell in love and knew this was perfect venue for us! Alice was so warm and welcoming towards us from day one and she put us at ease knowing we could make the day our own and reflect us as a couple. She was extremely helpful and she was always contactable to ask any question or clarify anything. Being able to have the venue all weekend made the build up to the day more special and stress-free. Again, Alice was super accommodating along with her lovely husband – it really was a family event! We were never under any pressure with time, they couldn’t have been more flexible for us which made the whole planning experience even more enjoyable and exciting leading up to the day! Our guests could not compliment the setting enough! The Potting Shed had the rustic, quirky, cosy feeling for the ceremony that we wanted and the gardens provided stunning backdrops for all the photos, along with a beautiful marquee for the wedding breakfast and evening party. Having accommodation on site was fantastic – the online pictures do not do Midelney West justice! It is super spacious to have your wedding party get ready for the day and even better to not have far to travel at the end of the night. Myself and my husband had booked to stay in the Iglu which was a lovely mini retreat for us to reflect on the day and spend quality time as newlyweds. Thank you Alice and your whole family for making our wedding planning and day so special and memorable! We could not have hoped to have a more perfect wedding day and I am sure we will be returning for anniversaries in the future!

Beautiful gardens deep in Somerset

We got married in mid-June outside in the Midelney gardens with a gorgeous marquee reception to follow. We made Midelney our own with a flower arch and trees in the marquee. We loved that it is a lesser-known venue and our guests are still talking about how beautiful Midelney is. Hattie the dog was a particular hit! Thank you Alice & Family, it was a dream.

Beautiful Somerset Wedding

We have just had our wedding at Midelney Manor and WOW what a perfect day we had. The venue is simply stunning , a hidden gem right in the heart of the Somerset Levels. The gardens and grounds are gorgeous and so well kept. The setting is just the most perfect place to host a wedding. We have had rave reviews from our guests commenting on how wonderful this venue was and we couldn't agree more. Alice Acton, owner of the venue also acts as a coordinator. She went above and beyond from day one. Nothing was to much to ask, no question was ever too silly. She has a real love and passion for creating the perfect day for the couples who decide to choose Midelney as their venue. She spends time getting to know her couples, assisting wherever needed and checking in along the way to see how it's going and see where she can be of assistance. The entire weekend Alice was part of the set up, present on the say and even helped with the clean up and packing cars with all our items. Due to the venue hosting a smaller amount of weddings a year as opposed to some of the larger known venues across Somerset, Alice puts her all into these weddings and really cares. Wanting to make the biggest day of your life one to ALWAYS remember. On site there is also Midelney West which is a self catering property which sleeps 7 included in the venue hire pricing and it was gorgeous as so handy to have. we couldn't have been asked for more. Thank you Alice. We will always have Midelney Manor in our hearts! X

The perfect wedding day

Midelney Manor is quite literally the perfect wedding venue. Alice was pivotal in us being able to organise the wedding day of dreams. Her list of suppliers were of brilliant quality, whilst also offering a wide array of different options. The grounds of Midelney Manor also provide loads of flexibility for how you wish to have your day. We felt that Alice was truly invested in helping us deliver the day we wanted and she was ever present in the build up and on the day itself. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Midelney Manor to those looking for a beautiful, tranquil, marquee wedding in the countryside. Check out the Iglu too for your wedding night stay! Thank you so so much Alice for all of your hard work. We will keep in touch! A&W x

Fantastic Wedding Venue

We had our wedding reception at Midelney Manor in July 2023 and honestly we could not have chosen a better venue! Alice was a delight to deal with from our very first enquiry - helpful, responsive and gave great advice based on her extensive experience. We had a great experience with her recommended suppliers too. Her hard work on the day itself was beyond appreciated, she kept everything running as it should and took all pressure off us. Midelney Manor is absolutely stunning and our guests were so impressed. It was the perfect place to bring our dream day to life, and we felt so lucky that in choosing Midelney (and Alice!) we could have such a personal and bespoke wedding reception that really reflected 'us' as a couple. The onsite accommodation was a very useful benefit too. Could not recommend Midelney Manor more. Thank you Alice!

The most magical day of my life

I honestly cannot recommend Alice and Midelney Manor enough, we had our wedding this weekend, and it was simply stunning (even if I am biased!) From the first time we reached out to Alice, to the day we left Midelney after the wedding, Alice was so attentive, and incredibly helpful! Having never planned a wedding, or any large event before, myself and my now husband were completely at a loss of where to begin, how much things would cost, how to find suppliers, right down to picking a time that the ceremony should begin! Alice gave us an extensive list of suppliers she recommends, along with always being contactable to answer any questions we had. I'd feel myself getting stressed about something, so speak to Alice, and almost immediately I'd be calm and have a plan set out, honestly she has made our planning enjoyable rather than full of stress! With regards to pricing, having looked at many other venues, the pricing is extremely fair! As not only do you get use of the venue, but Alice as an invaluable help! The venue has many different areas, so it really felt like a few venues rolled into one! The venue itself is so incredibly beautiful, with lots of stunning areas, and private nooks. We stayed onsite at their Iglu accommodation, while 3 couples of our bridal party stayed in Midelney West. This was so perfect, as it meant we had people close, but my husband and I could have our own space to escape to! We have had so many compliments from guests, raving about how beautiful the grounds are, but also how personalised the day felt. One of the many things we loved about Midelney Manor was that they dedicate a full weekend of your wedding, so there isn't such a mad rush to get things put up and taken down, making the weekend feel so special. The Potting Shed is an amazing space, everytime we were in there, we noticed something we hadn't seen before, from the vegetable competition certificates from the 1920s, to the beautiful portraits on the walls. It was a blessing to have an area that was cooler than outside for our elderly guests to sit, out of the sun! Thank you again to Alice and her whole family, for everything you've done for us this weekend, and for the past year! If you are thinking about visiting, all I can say is go, you will be swept up by Alice's passion and expertise!

The most perfect day!

Me and my husband couldn’t recommend Midelney manor any more if we tried. We had the most perfect day. Alice was super helpful, always on the end of the phone if we had any questions. The thing I loved is that the whole wedding was so personal for us, exactly how we had imagined. If we needed some advice on things Alice was around to help us in any way, and would point us in the right direction. There was also lots of space outside of the marquee for the children, they loved all the gardens!! Midelney west where I stayed the night before with my bridesmaids was a lovely place to get ready, lots of space, I felt so relaxed on the morning of the wedding. Absolutely perfect 🥰
