Hamswell House
Hamswell, Bath, Bristol, BA1 9DG, Bath, Somerset
Up to 250 guests
Hamswell House is a historic manor house on its own estate. It has an orangery and picturesque walled gardens and is surrounded by stunning countryside. It is a private estate not a hotel, a golf club or a corporate events venue and that is what makes it so different.
When you hold your ceremony and wedding reception at Hamswell, you will have the exclusive use of the orangery and the grounds for the day and evening to share with your guests.
You can hold the ceremony inside the romantic 18th Century orangery with its Cotswold stone roof and huge arch windows. It can seat 40 inside, while the rest of the guests can watch and listen to the short ceremony from outside on the lawn.
Following the service, you can join your guests for celebratory drinks on the terrace and enjoy the stunning rural views over the Hamswell Valley with the Westbury White Horse in the distance.
The gardens and the backdrop of the house make the perfect setting for your wedding photographs. You and your guests are free to explore the walled gardens, pergola and terraced herb garden before moving to an elegant marquee for the evening celebration.
We can accommodate up to 240 guests in a marquee for a seated dinner. What's more, you are free to bring your own wine and bubbly for the celebration. We do not charge corkage, which saves you a small fortune.
Alternatively, if you are only looking for a small wedding for up to 40, followed by a drinks reception, we can arrange that too.
• Historic manor house
• Ceremonies in the romantic 18th-century orangery
• Georgeous gardens and outstanding rural views

The Longhouse at Mill on the Brue
Trendle Farm, Tower Hill, Bruton, Somerset, BA10 0BA, Bruton, Somerset
£3950
Up to 150 guests
Up to 150 guests
Eco wedding venue
Designed to create a feeling of floating above the tree tops, the Longhouse boasts stunning view across the Brue valley stretching over our vineyard, the River Brue and beyond. The southern side widens out to a full length balcony overlooking the lawn, formal flower beds and gazebo. It is a popular area for wedding guests in the evening to enjoy catching up with friends, soak in the views or just take a break from dancing!
The interior of the Longhouse has purposely been decorated in muted tones to allow wedding couples to enjoy creating their own colour schemes. There are different table layouts depending on the number of guests, and how formal you want the wedding breakfast to be. The tables are long and rectangular rather than round, making it easier for guests to be able to talk to each other. The Longhouse bar is adjacent and close enough not to split up the wedding party, and importantly on the same level. There is a disabled lavatory and baby changing facilities also on the same level.
The Longhouse was built to high environmental standards and is an award winning eco wedding venue. We are very proud to be one of the eco-friendly wedding venues to recently receive GoldStar status -the highest category – in Green Tourism’s Business Scheme.
The building’s credentials as an eco wedding venue include: rain water harvesting, sheep wool insulation, recycled rubber roof tiles, heating by either ground source heat pump or our large wood burner stove. Solar thermal and photovoltaic panels produce more than 70% of our annual electricity requirement.

Rodmarton Manor
Rodmarton Manor, Oathill Ln, Rodmarton,, GL7 6PF, Cirencester, Gloucestershire
RODMARTON MANOR is the supreme example of a house built and all its furniture made according to Arts and Crafts ideals and was one of the last country houses to be built and furnished in the old traditional style when everything was done by hand with local stone, local timber and local craftsmen.
Ernest Barnsley and the Cotswold group of Craftsmen, who built and furnished the house for Claud and Margaret Biddulph, beginning in 1909, were responsible for the revival of many traditional crafts in the Cotswolds which were in danger of dying out. Over the 20 years that it took to build the house many people were involved in building, woodwork, metalwork, needlework, painting, gardening, all done to a very high standard.
Most of the furniture was made specially for the house, either in the Rodmarton workshops, or made by Sidney Barnsley, Edward Barnsley or Peter Waals. Some furniture was bought after the house was built but all pieces are directly or indirectly attributable to the original craftsmen or people who had connections with them such as Harry Davoll, Owen Scrubey, Oliver Morel.
There is furniture and pottery painted by Alfred and Louise Powell, applique wall hangings designed by Hilda Benjamin (Sexton), leadwork and brass designed by Norman Jewson, and ironwork by Fred and Frank Baldwin and Alfred Bucknell.
