Pennard House - Somerset Full Description
Nestled in the rolling hills of Somerset, Pennard House is a beautiful, family owned Georgian manor house, surrounded by walled gardens, wildflower meadows and cider orchards. With everything within walking distance, your bespoke wedding takes place in one stunning location, with complete exclusivity, whether it’s for one day or an entire weekend! Why not come the night before and enjoy supper with your loved ones, cooked by our in-house chef, and relax knowing everything’s ready for your special day. Wake up and get ready in our bridal suite and then tie the knot under blue skies in our stunning outside pavilion or inside in our beautiful Napier room. Alternatively, the picturesque 14th century village church is just a few steps beyond our garden. After your ceremony, enjoy a glass of champagne and canapés on the south facing lawn with plenty of space for photographs and even lawn games - Croquet anyone? Your celebrations would then move to our stunning 18th century Coach House. Host your wedding breakfast amongst wooden beams and fairy lights then dance the night away with friends and family in our unique party space with custom made dance floor, bespoke bar and candlelit cosy seating booths. When it’s time to say goodnight, you have complimentary use of our beautiful Orchard suite and your loved ones can also stay nearby in our beautiful bedrooms or under the stars in our 16ft luxury tipis in the garden. Whatever you want your day to be Pennard House will make it happen, the epitome of dreamy elegance whilst remaining a laid back, warm, country home, it’s the perfect setting for your romantic, rustic wedding.

5* doesn’t do Pennard House justice!

5* doesn’t do Pennard House justice! Myself and my new husband are totally in love with Pennard House where we had our wedding just over a week ago. It will forever hold a very special place in our hearts – my husband is already wanting to host his 40th birthday there in a few years time! The whole team at Pennard have been AMAZING from start to finish and made the day seamless :). The location is unbeatable in the stunning Somerset countryside.

The food - canapés through to pizzas was awesome.

I could not have hoped for a better place to have my daughter’s wedding. The attention to detail from Hannah and the staff was outstanding and the venue is also very special. The food, from canapés through to the pizzas was awesome. A special wedding in a very special place. Thank you!

We are completely blown away by Pennard

We are completely blown away by our experience at Pennard that we are struggling to find our words of gratitude. The amount of compliments we have received about the day! A special thank you for the care of Bills’ grandad on the day. This was his first trip out for quite some years and he felt so cared for and effortlessly managed. Thank you especially to Denise and Lucy! We were so grateful for our hour of sunshine and despite the forecast, you worked so hard to get us some time outside!

Charlie was a dream, everything ran so perfectly

From the moment we visited Pennard House we knew we wanted to get married there and from start to end it was an absolute joy to plan our wedding with the team. Charlie was our wedding coordinator and I cannot thank him enough. We broke the mould by having a marquee in the garden and nothing we requested phased Charlie or was too big of an ask, he made the whole process a breeze. Over the weekend Charlie was a dream and everything ran so perfectly.

I’ve just about stopped crying happy tears

I’ve just about stopped crying happy tears about how amazing the wedding was! We don’t even know where to start with saying thank you to Hannah, Ellie, Denise, and every single person at Pennard House! The whole wedding from start to finish was absolutely everything we could have wished for and more. There is genuinely nothing we would have changed, even the rain in the morning! Thank you especially for being so accommodating with allowing us to make the decision on the outside ceremony so late

Lucy, Ellie, Denise were fantastic!

Lucy, Ellie, Denise and the entire team were fantastic from the moment we booked the venue. We felt very much like Pennard House was our home and felt completely taken care of and the team ensured we could just enjoy our day. No request was too much and the team were always there to help and make sure we had the most special wedding day. The house is stunning, the staff amazing, and the food incredibly tasty! We cannot recommend Pennard enough and we wish we could do it all again.

Our guests were equally gushing about the venue

From the very start of the process to the very end, we were looked after so well, throughout it all. All the staff are amazing but special shout out to Lucy, Ellie and Denise who just made the day itself and the lead up so stress free. We truly felt like we could enjoy everything along with our guest as they had it all covered in terms of the logistics of everything. Our guests were equally gushing about the venue and the staff on the day and after which really is a testament to them.

I don’t have the words to say how grateful I am for the support Lucy, Ellie, Denise and the whole team at Pennard house gave us on our wedding day. The venue is perfect and the staff can’t do enough to make you feel at home and at ease there, as well as helping you bring all your ideas to life. We’d recommend them to any couples looking for a space for their perfect day.

Thank you so so sooooooo much for helping us create the most perfect day we could ever have imagined. We honestly couldn’t have asked for more and we can’t quite put into words how much it meant to us. We both felt so relaxed and put at ease by yourself and the rest of the staff. Everybody commented on how friendly and accommodating you all were! You really are the best.
